Well today I had another session of schlerotherapy done to my right leg.  Schlerotherapy is where they inject a thin needle with a special solution in it into each noticable vein on your legs and try to get the underlying larger ones below the skin’s surface.   The veins generally will disappear after a few weeks.  What sucks is you have to wear tight-assed compression pantyhose after ward even to bed your first day.  Of course today was our first day of 80 degree weather here in CT!

 I had to do it though.  I have been self-consious about my legs for a while and for the last 3 years did not even wear shorts!  I have a hard time even wearing capris so much that I have wore them only 1 time in 3 years.  It is not that my legs are so bad it is just that they have alot of small spider veins scattered all over them and I am very pale so they show up.  Anyway like I said I am very self-consious about them so this was the best thing I could do for myself beside loose weight.  Well I have to use these pantyhose fo the next 3 1/2 weeks and no sun for about 8 weeks on them so some time around mid June.  Well if I get to wear shorts and skirts without pantyhose again from mid June on that will make it all well worth it.  No strenous exercise though for the next 48 hours.  I think I will go to a carnival with the kids this weekend then.
