Hello,
Veins can be visualized when you lose weight as well!! so the easiest thing to do is to have your blood pressure checked on three different occasions if the first one showed high blood pressure.
Best regards,

well, Do you know why have you been gaining weight? or you've just changed your diet habits?
and there are no changes in your blood pressure measurements?
By the way...you have to give us data so we can help you...we do not predict!
Best regards,
