Vulvar varicosities
Not a fun topic, but I'm 26 weeks and the pain and discomfort is getting unbearable. I don't feel or look like myself at all and can't believe I have 14 more weeks of this! It's been about 4 weeks of painful varicose veins all over my right leg and in my vulva that bulge and throb by the end of the day. Sitting to go to the bathroom hurts 😞. I'm not even on my feet at work. I'm supposed to go on a work trip in a week which will require 4+ hours in the car for two days. Has anyone had bad varicose veins and been put on modified bed rest? I'm worried as I've heard stories of veins bursting or increasing the odds of getting a blood clot. I'm considering asking my doctor to write a note saying that I cannot travel anymore, but I don't know if sitting for long periods really makes a big difference and I feel like such a whiney baby asking for this.
