Hello I am Serenity

Hello, I am 46 years old with
fibromyalgia. I am a mother of two and
grandmother of 3, with the next one on the
way. I am having some serious problems
with bruising? I am not sure where this is
supposed to be posted. Whenever I use my
arms/hands i.e. chopping food/veggies,
nothing strenuous, I end up with black and
blue marks from the top of my wrists to
about an inch below my elbow on both arms.
They have not been hit, bumped or
crushed. If I basically do nothing for a
few days they go away, but as soon as I do
anything even just replanting a plant, the
bruises appear. Any thoughts?

so did you post it or do you need me to
help guide you? I will pass this on to the
moderators and we will help you find out
where to go. Hang tight and I will get
back with you. Sorry for the
confusion.HomerX

That is alright, I am going to call the
doctor on Monday, it is getting worse I
just swept the kitchen floor this morning
and my arm/forearms just got blacker. I
bumped my arm on the counter it broke open
and the blood clotted really fast. I am
not taking any new meds. I have been on
these for years.

no problem Dy. thank you:) enjoy your
vacation! ( hi Peeve)
serenity1662...I saw where you posted your
question. It will probably be Monday
before some one gets back to you as the
week ends are pretty slow some times.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I did alert
the moderator. Good Luck.
