Hello,
For the past 7 months i've unintentionally lost weight (i've lost about a stone to be precise) and i'm constantly finding new bruises each day too. Since this has started I've been extra careful but I honestly dont knock myself enough to have these bruises as 'accidental'. Theyre in patches on my legs and a few on my left hip too. I occasionally find some on my arms as well but it's mainly my legs. Obviously google is going to tell me all sorts about leukaemia etc which I don't fancy going into because there's nothing worse than scaring yourself.
Ive recently been diagnosed with a b12 and folate deficiency and started taking medication for it 2 days ago but I don't know whether it's all linked in?? I know my fatigue will be and some days I just feel so wiped out. Recently more than anything i've noticed these bruises more alongside my tiredness and weight. Ive had a FBC as well so i'm guessing if there was something else wrong it would have shown up in my bloods? I'm going to do another e consult tomorrow and send photos to my doctor.
Im not freaking out or anything but I was just wondering if anyone's had a similar experience to any of this??
Thanksss
