Unexplained Bruising With Blood Spots, Itchy Skin, Lost Appetite. What Is The Cause?
I have unexplained bruising with blood spots (I think that is what they are called?) along with itchy skin. I ve completely lost my appetite and I m always tired no matter how much sleep I get. Its been going on for about 6 months. I was wondering what could be causing this? I m booked in for blood tests later this week.

Hi and welcome to HCM.
It i shard to say are those 2 symptoms related. Unexplained bruise is usually sign of clotting disorder but it can occur without obvious reasin. Loss of apetite is probbaly something else and you should do complete gastroenterologic and endocrinologic work up because it can be sign of certain diseases. Also if you are female, hormonal imbalance should be considered. WIsh you good health.
