Do you ever get mysterious bruises?

[GRLMGC]

I noticed a bunch on my legs. Weird.

1. You probably bumped into something

and didn't realize until the bruises showed up.

You're busy, say 'ow' to yourself, and promptly forget about it.

2. Not since my last divorce.

Wonder why? Been years since I woke up with bruises...

Or a fat lip...

[bahrbearian]

3. No but I kow how to give them.

4. If you have a lot of bruises

Please see your Dr. You may have an issue with your platelets.

I'm not a Dr. but I have experienced 'bruising and platelets'

[GRLMGC]

9. Oh no

It's not like that. I just notice them randomly but they're not severe or anything.

[auntAgonist]

11. that's good then :)

[Taverner]

13. Are you getting enough iron?

Bruises can be a sign of an iron deficiency

[GRLMGC]

14. I should hope so

My mom is iron deficient. Am I susceptible to it too?

[Maddy McCall]

5. Didn't do any drinking in the past night or two, didja?

:evilgrin:

[RevolutionaryActs]

6. All the time, but I'm slightly clumsy and I bruise easy.

Go figure.

7. I noticed a few on my right leg

Then I remembered, a blonde rat pushed me over my chair.

[LeftyMom]

8. Yeah

They aren't as mysterious when you have a three year old boy. It's more like, "Gee, I don't remember him hitting me with his toy lightsaber there. Oh, a bite mark, how many times must a kid go through that biting phase? Is that one from tripping over his Simba doll or from walking into the fold out couch when he woke up at three am and wanted to watch Hobbits?"

10. One time, the phrase "HELP ME" inexplicably appeared on my abdomen.

Around the same time, I also discovered that I could spin my head around in a full circle without breaking my neck. Go figure.

[CottonBear]

12. I get them too.

I'm a very thin skinned , very pale white girl. I work with horses and garden. I get bruised. It happens. I wear hose with skirts. Mostly I wear riding breeches.

[htuttle]

15. No, but I keep finding pairs of puncture marks on my neck

I haven't really been able to sleep well lately, either.
