Bruising is only a possible] side effect of Equetro, and it's rare. I do not know that being on a blood thinner would increase your risk of bruising while on this med, but I can understand your concern. It's something you should discuss with your pdoc, but only if you are still considering taking it

The list of side effects you see online are only possible side effects. I like to go to drugs.com to view the side effects of medications so that I can see if the incidence of them are very common, common, rare, or incidence unknown (outside clinical studies, and maybe unrelated to the medication). I'm always most interested in the very common and common ones when I start taking a med, but I always read the whole list. If I refused to take my meds because of all of the rare potentially severe side effects, I would be on no meds at all because they all have them, but there are things that exclude meds for me such as they may cause mania or effect kidney function (because of kidney disease).

You seem very anxious about your meds, so I would call your pdoc on Tuesday to straighten things out, and maybe ask for Topamax? I think you will feel better afterwards (((HUGS)))
