Hey All!

More than 30 million Americans suffer from varicose veins or chronic venous insufficiency (CVI).*,**

Because there is a prevailing misconception that varicose veins are a cosmetic issue, only 10 percent of people who suffer from vein disease actually seek treatment.*** That’s why we’re getting together to share knowledge and break myths about this common, yet serious condition!

Rethink Varicose Veins is a campaign that encourages individuals to think differently about varicose veins and understand that if left untreated, they can progress to a more serious form of venous disease known as CVI.

Summer Sanders, U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist, television correspondent, blogger and busy mother-of-two will be sharing her personal experience with vein disease, how she treated the condition head-on and her role in the Rethink Varicose Veins campaign.

Join this party to learn about the signs, symptoms and risk factors of varicose veins and CVI and latest minimally-invasice treatment options available.

Trivia questions will be asked throughout the Twitter Party and five lucky winners who answer the questions correctly will receive a $50 VISA gift card from The Motherhood.

When: Thursday, July 18 at 2 p.m. ET (the party will last one hour)

Where: Weā€™ll be on Twitter ā€“ follow the #RethinkVaricose hashtag to track the conversation. You can see the details and RSVP via this Twtvite: http://twtvite.com/rethinkvaricose

    I’ve had two friends under go surgery for varicose veins, and no it wasn’t for cosmetic reasons.

  • I have a few flat spider veins I’d love to have disappear.

    I’m so glad I didn’t miss it..this runs in my family, and is just ugly anyway, but I have trouble finding someone who specializes in it and who will take an approach that is cosmetically pleasing (one suggested surgery, but these days?? Aren’t there lasers?)
