Unexplained bruising, blood tests OK

Hi, 

Hope someone has some help and advice. 

Im a 34 year old male, in good health until the past 18 month, when I started getting unexplained joint pain and my mental health took a nose dive. 

About 8 week ago a bruise appeared on the inner side of my left upper arm, extending from my armpit.

At one point a bright right spot about the size of a 5p appeared next to the bruise, then went leaving a mark the same dark colour as the bruise. 

The bruise has not changed colour, there's no pain, no previous injury. 

I have had my blood tested for everything possible 3 times, each time it is good.

Ive had ongoing joint and bone pain that the GP has put down to stress. 

I'm at my wits end, my GPs dont want to know, just keep repeating that my blood and bone profiles are good. 

I'm fatigued constantly, my mental health is shot and they are just lumping everything on that. 

I'm a fit healthy lad, I've gone from running half marathons to struggling to get out of bed.

  • Hi all,

    I ended up on here after googling symptoms, as my daughter (20yrs) has been having such strange symptoms and seeing your post I finally feel like I'm not going mad! She started having prolonged periods (5weeks at a time), she's pale, going dizzy, swollen stomach, tired all the time and she just comes out in random bruises! I was convinced it was anemia but her blood tests have all come back normal, but she did have blood in her urine! I was wondering if after all the blood tests coming back normal, what other tests would they do if any! I'm at a complete loss! Thank you
