Default blue veins caused by met?

I started 500mg of met 2x per day about 5-6 weeks ago.

Two weeks ago several blue veins started to appear on my boobs and inside of my elbow. At first, I thought I was possibly pregnant (cause that can be a pregnancy sign) but now I'm sure I'm not (I honestly don't think I even ovulated).

I haven't gone to the doctor yet about this, but I'm just wondering, does anyone else taking met have a problem with blue veins?

Were you hot when you were looking? Are you possibly dehydrated? Have you lost weight?

All of these things can make veins more prominant.

Never heard of the met directly causing blue veins...

They have been there for two weeks straight, and no I haven't lost weight.

I've been more thirsty since I started met, but I don't think I'm dehydrated
