Bruising easily anyone?



Recommended Posts

I have little bruises all over mr lately. My wrist looks like someone grabbed me and wouldnt let go and I also have little bruises on my inner thighs....which has me stumped because they are so chubby how could they possibly be hit hard enough to bruise?

Do you think it's just a coincidence or something nutritional that I'm missing?

I've also noticed this. I was getting out of the shower the other day and noticed this huge bruise - about the size of a softball - on my tummy. I don't remember being hit hard enough to do anything like that. I've been making sure I get all my protien and taking the recommended Vitamins and stuff too. It's a mystery to me...

I keep teasing dh. I keep telling him if I don't find the cause of these bruises people are going to think he's doing it.

My wrist really looks like someone just squeezed the heck out of it.

We at Henry Ford Bariatric Center are put on "FLINSTONES COMPLETE WITH CHOLINE" Now don't laugh to hard,, They happen to be one of the best Vitamins out there for Bariatric patients.

They are chewable, they are in a orange box not to be confused with the regular chew ables. These contain CHOLINE, and it is very good for you. I do about 4 a day, and no bruising. If I start to forget to take them, the bruises come back.

Takes about 2 weeks to a moth for all to go away, and not come back.

Have you had bloodwork recently? I would definitely have some done, if you are bruising so easily it could indicate a variety of different things. Not saying it definitely means anything but I still would check it out

This happens to me when I'm anemic. You need more Iron.< /p>

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
