Schedule appointment: it sounds like you are concerned the medical abortion was not completed. It will be important to schedule follow up to confirm

I am pregnant and when I sit down my toes turn blue but when I get up and move around it goes away. Also when I showered my thumbs turned blue. If you had cyanosis would the blue discolouration stay or only be there sometimes?
