Hmm.. never heard of such a thing. I would call just to be safe. Better safe then sorry.

Have your doctor get your blood drawn to check your blood counts

@missyjill, what is that blood counts ?

@happymommy23.-, lab draw that checks your white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelet counts, also known as "CBC" lab draw. How long have you been having bruising?

I'm anemic and never experienced bruising. So I'm not so sure if it could be an iron deficiency.

@mommakaz, oh ok , thank you!

@happymommy23.-, I think you should call her now, especially if the bruises come out of nowhere without bumping into those areas. Better to be safe than sorry.
