Some brown pigmentation comes from hemochromatosis and
can be seen on the skin. Hemochromatosis will cause PN too.
Sometimes the bronzing is all over but others it is in the form of freckles that merge. This page has a photo of a young woman who was diagnosed with melasma (hormone freckling) and in reality she had hemochromatosis.

If you could provide a photo...that would help. |
Hi MrsD,
Thanks for that. They look like normal little freckles, have about 25 scattered randomly across legs more light brown. They are round.Yes, seem to be just on lower legs.If i was not with PN and EM i'd jprobably think nothing of it - maybe sun or something. But im housebound and dont see light of day. Its not that. I just seem to be getting more appear - randomly- not together.Also have a larger one appear today that is bit larger , round and looks more like a bruise - but its not.Im really feeling so dreadfully ill. So many symptoms - getting worse. I'll try to sort out photo.
God bless x
