a Lot of Unexplained Bruising Posted: 07-31-06 23:26pm
Hypochondriac ramblings but im slightly
concerned:
any advice/comments would be
appreciated!
Im a relatively small girl. 5'4 and
probably about 107lbs or less right now.
Im currently not on any meds but was on an
antidepressant. I have bruises all over
me.
I bruise so easily. Like its not funny
anymore. It looks like someone beat the
crap out of me. The smallest bump into
anything turns into a horrendous bruise.
I first asked my doctor about it about 6
months ago.
The doc and I talked about how my mom was
anemic. She gets b12 shots every month
and has to get her blood tested and go to
the cancer/blood center for that.
I think he drew blood to test me when I
first went in to ask about it and I think
he said everything was fine. I know some
people bruise easily but this cannot be
normal.
It concerns me that I dont ever remember
bumping into anything and I dont know
where half of them come from. Sometimes I
think if im sitting down on like a bench
or something and my legs are resting
against a hard surface that leaves
bruises.
What could be going on? Should I go back
to the doctor or am I worrying over
nothing and perhaps I do just bruise
easily.
Thanks for any help.

I experience a similar thing, I have no
idea where the bruises come from...They
dont hurt or anything...To be honest I
don't think it is anything too much to
worry about and just an unlucky thing that
some people bruise more easily than
others.
