Bruising easily - Anyone have issues with this?
IBackBevo

I'm not a hypochondriac, I promise--but lately I have started noticing bruises all over my body. A couple of weeks ago, my in-laws were visiting and my MIL was like, "Why is the entire back of your leg bruised? Did you fall down?" I looked, and sure enough the entire back of my leg had bruises all over it. I have no idea where the bruises came from.
I had my blood drawn on Friday and have a huge bruise from it. I've never had this before. I now have a bruise in the shape of finger prints on my thigh...no clue even what from. I also noticed bruising (again) all over the back of my calf on the same leg where I had bruising before. Again, I have not done anything that I can think of to cause this. It is like if I am touched, I end up with a bruise.
I asked my DH about it and he just blew me off. Of course, he also blew me off when I was pregnant and having horrible headaches...turns out I had pre-e.
I was thinking this can be a sign of a vitamin deficiency (like C or K or something)...I have been dieting, but I have been taking prenatal vitamins so I would not think I would be deficient. Any thoughts?

Re: Bruising easily - Anyone have issues with this?
If you are really concerned, I'd see about getting in for a general physical. I just had a big panel (CBC, Metabolic, Ferritin, Vitamins A and D) run, as I have an autoimmune disease that is greatly influenced by pregnancy/ post partum. I'm having an a
