Bruised But Not Battered

Check out yesterday's back blip.

I was sitting in the neurologist's waiting room this morning when I looked down at my legs. Wow! My right leg was covered with bruises. Surprised the heck out of me. Then I noticed some on my arm.

I have the ugliest legs this side of the Mississippi, anyway. They obviously don't tan. Just compare the tan arms with the chicken skin legs.

I was very concerned about the amount of purple, green and yellow so I went to the walk-in clinic. I have a couple of other very weird symptoms, too. The PA was useless.

My PCP is on maternity leave but I managed to get an appointment tomorrow with a doctor I don't know. I guess they considered my symptoms and these bruises serious enough to take me right away.

I didn't even notice the bruise on my left leg until I took the photo. Hopefully, I'm not beating myself up while I'm sleeping and there are easy explanations for everything else.

It's always somethin'
