Bruising

Has anyone else noticed that they bruise more easily since surgery? I was getting ready this morning and I noticed 5 or 6 small bruises on various areas. Nothing painful or too ugly, but I did think it was weird since I don't remember being any klutzier than usual...

Has anyone else experienced this? Do you think it's vitamin related? I'm having a full blood workup this week and I'm the first to admit that I'm terrible at remembering to take my daily vitamin.

I believe I have read somewhere recently that bruising is a sign of low blood sugar! So it is good news that you had blood tests............That should pick up any issues. Best of luck to you!

Definitly tell your doctor and have him check it out. Bruising could be serious. Please let us know what he finds / says. Hugs !!!

I was hypoglycemic in my teens and early 20's. Therefore, low blood sugar. I constantly was bruising. It was horrid. My legs looked like a battle ground. But.... I solved that little sugar problem by swinging the pendulum in the opposite direction over about 7 years of bad food habits.
