What Causes Bruising And Weight Loss Suddenly?

I recently went to the Dr for bronchitis and after checking for blood clots was given a zpack and prednisone. Another issue I was having is my skin hurts, it was better while on the zpack but has come back and not let up. OTC medications are not helping, I also have a low grade fever. It started about 4 weeks ago and has come and gone. This time it has stayed sore for four days. I have been bruising easier for the past 3 months or so and have lost 25 lbs over about 9 months. What do I do? It wakes me when I change position at night and hurts to even slide a shirt on.
