The fact is that most of these symptoms are far more likely to be cause by other things or by nothing at all. My legs are covered in spider veins and have been for years, as a middle aged woman this is not unusual (I don’t know your age). I think it’s a very easy disease for HA to latch onto as it has all the hallmarks of something we can worry about - vague and diverse symptoms which are common and non specific, tests that can be inaccurate etc etc.
