He has a lot of thread veins in his legs and a concentration of them around his ankles. He has some nasty looking larger veins in his legs too.
His feet do turn some funny colours, from being white, to red and purple. The Dr's has seen the colour change for himself.
I will let you know how we get on.

I have those colour changes in my feet also, my neurologist said it was all part of PN- the messages to add or remove blood from the feet are getting mixed up was how she described it.
Tips from this forum that have helped me most are Alkaseltzer(2 at bedtime keep the pain at bay so that I sleep), steeping feet in Epsom salts in lukewarm water for at least 30 mins and my latest addition is theanine at night( wonderful stuff).
