Look what they do to me! :(
this is just from normal day to day living. Something touches me, I bruise. It's kind of embarrassing because I wear a lot of skirts and dresses lately since it's hot and it looks like I'm being abused at home or something.

Ouch! It looks like you fell down the stairs! Are they working other than that?

kind of makes you aware of every little bump you have around the house, huh?
I bruise really easily --always have. Sometimes I find a great bruise and think, hmmm--when did THAT happen?
Hopefully the meds are doing their job for you in other ways though.

I bruise really really easily, so I know how you feel. I actually almost never wear shorts/skirts because I ALWAYS have bruises on my legs....

One time a friend grabbed me to pull me out of the way of a ball... yeah, I had her HAND PRINT bruised around my arm. That was a hard one to explain away without people thinking I was hiding something.

I hope you get things sorted soon though. :(

I bruise normally but I'm a bit of a klutz and have dogs who are as well so I usually have large bruises somewhere at all times. I found one last week on the back of my leg that was about quarter size and black - now it's a ring of purple and looks like a dog bite! Weird!

D yours ever go away? I have had the same ones for a couple years now. It took heperin for 4 months before mine finally faded. I stopped taking it and now they are back. IT is scary when you think you are not repairing on a very basic level.

They eventually go away, but they last a LONG time. For example, from my hospital stay at the end of April, I got huge bruises from the Heparin shots and you can still see them
