For the past few weeks I have been noticing a lot of unexplainable bruises. Has anyone else had this issue? They are not your normal small bruises, the ones I'm getting are huge and change colors drastically. Out of my entire recovery process this has been my only issue. Guess its time to head back to the doctors!

do you have anticoagulant treatment

No

i dont know but its better to seek adoctor for blood invistigation

maybe you neef Vitamin k

Yeah I'm going to call tomorrow because this one that showed up on my leg is pretty big. And now each time they get bigger and bigger and I know that's not normal.

I had a lot of bruising but it was because I was injecting an anticoagulant. I showed my doctor and he said to not worry. But if you are not injecting anything, then I dont know.

I had several bruises on my stomach from the heprin shots they gave me. Which is a blood thinner. If they gave you a blood thinner before surgery and I think most surgeons do that may be why. Some of my bruises didn't show up for 2 weeks and they are just starting to fade I am 5 weeks out. Also some were huge like at least as big as my hand and others the size of golf balls. I would call your Dr. just to be safe.

Just wanted to share my experience to give you a little piece of mind. How far out from surgery are you?

i didnt have a chance to call him today it has me freaking out. i am almost 5 months out

so go to see aGP in ahospital and tell him about your medical history
