  • People with DM type 2 have narrowing of the arteries mainly the small arteriole. The slowed flow is deprived of oxygen, and by the time they get through the capillaries to the vein, the oxygen in the hemoglobin was extracted so much that the blood turn cyanotic due to increase amount of 'reduced' hemoglobin which is what is perceived as 'purple".
