Why would i see the vein sticking out only on left side of neck?normal ekg,stress test and echocardiogram in feb.and normal u/s of carotids in april.

Vein: A vein sticking out can be from anatomic means like a nearby artery pushing on the vein and causing back pressure. If your doc has examined you and finds nothing to worry about, it is likely some internal insignificant partial obstruction. Since you've had so many studies, your Doc should be able to advise you.

It can be: normal to have asymmetry in size of the jugular veins. However, if this represents a change from your normal appearance, see your doctor, because it could be a sign of obstructed venous flow. This would be very unlikely if you have no other symptoms, however.
