Ok to answer your questions Lottie. I have one dot that was red and now is a brown looking yucky thing. I have some that are just red dots nothing strange. The yucky one kinda hurts the other ones don't really hurt but I think they may itch, from time to time I find my self scratching didn't really pay attention at first. I will pay closer attention. Yes I do bruise very easily now and a bruise is long long long in going away. I have had one bruise now for 3 weeks shows no sign in leaving anytime soon. I think its new address is just below the bend of my knee on the back of my leg.
