Ali, the bruising looks very painfull. I have bruising issues but I do believe I am anemic. My doctor has put me on a special vitamin (which I forget to take), My children make fun of me because they know they can't be rough with me (they are 2 boys 13 and 16). They know I'll get a bruise.

Be well and take care of yourself! Linda

Default Hi Ali,
I hope your arm and hand is better today. It looks so bad in the picture.

You must have fallen pretty hard for all of that bruseing.

I too was thinking you maybe anemic. I was when I first started with all of this but I'm ok now.

Hopefully your Dr. will do some bloodwork on you. It could be a combination of both the fall and anemia.

Take care,
Ada

Ali,

That arm looks *REALLY* bad! I do hope they start giving you treatment for RSD fast and that it does something to alleviate the pain and what you are going through.

You are in my thoughts!

Default Bruising happens with RSD
My family member with RSD has bruising daily. Hope you have a good recovery with your injury and RSD treatment.
Does anyone know about the program with ketamine in NY or other states?
What about HBOT? Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Wow Ali,

You are such a brave spirit! Hang in there.

My bruising came from blood drawn. I have discoloration in both legs;however, my discoloration is nothing compared to your pic above.
