Visible veins all over my body

Hello everyone! I am 22 years old and a little over a month ago, I started to experience a mild pain in my left calf. I thought it was because of my job (I work in an office) so I ignored it, however, a few days later I noticed that veins on my legs started to be much more visible than usual. I went to see a phlebologist and he told me that I shouldn't be too worried about those veins as they are not varicose veins yet, but he told me that I am prone to develop them in the future. I was supposed to have a sclerotherapy procedure done on my legs on September this year. I was relieved that day. A few days later, I woke up with bulging veins all over my hands and arms. Then I got them on my chest, breasts and even a few on the lower part of my stomach. Today I noticed a little vein underneath my right eye  I have another medical appointment but it's in 3 weeks and I am so scarred that I don't know what to do anymore. Is there anyone else with similar symptoms?
