fyi, i have 2 lesions in my parietal lobe near corona radiata, if that matters. My right side doesnt have visible vein. Only sticks out when i exercise/mild movement. Another thing, i think its feeding the lesion. Maybe its a tumor, its intra-cranial deep in the white matter. neurologist so far said dont worry about it, have to mri 6 months from now. i dont trust that doc though, seemed rude at the time. Also, always have this pushy feeling, like a headache, doesn't bother me. help
