What Causes Excessive Sleepiness And Bruising On Body?

Recently i have been feeling a bit "under the weather". I've been really tired constantly, falling asleep during the day and in lessons etc. I have also been bruising really easily and am covered in large bruises that seem to be be bigger than they should be. In addition to this, i have been getting headaches, my glands on my necka and under my arms have been really sore and i have had abdominal pain, under my ribs. I went to the doctors yesterday and they sent me for a blood test but they wont tell me what they are looking for. Can you help?
