I am waiting on a blood test as I.m having a lot of bruising around my body.
When the doctors do a blood test to rule out clots D-Dimer it is always raised. I don't know what to expect also I.m waiting on a CT scan on my abdomen.
I'm sorry to hear that you've been undergoing some tests recently to try to find out why you are experiencing a lot of bruising. It's understandable that you may be feeling anxious about this. Hopefully, you won't have to wait too long for the CT scan and the results will give the doctors the information they need to make a diagnosis.
