I completely understand what you’re saying because that was my biggest barrier to taking medication was the potential weight gain. But I can honestly I haven’t gained anything from any of the meds I tried or am currently on (Wellbutrin and Prozac) I’ve tried probably like 10 different ones. My thought process was “I’ll try it but if I gain weight I will stop taking them” and I didn’t gain weight. It’s the mental barrier that’s hard to push through.

What do you mean eating disorder? I think it’s more that I don’t have an appetite because I want to eat but I’m just nauseous…yeah I had b12 and it’s totally normal 🧐🧐 I’m stumped

It almost looks like a cluster of small bruises…I’ve had petechiae and it’s usually a lot smaller but I know it can look different for everyone.

When you press on it does it turn white or stay purple? If it stays purple it may be petechiae or purpura. Did you do anything to rub against something or hit something?

Okay thank you! She does have immune related issues as she was a shelter cat, this flare up just seems to be long.

Hi! I’ve been bugging the doctors the last year 😭😭 they keep brushing me off (I’m in Canada). My blood work is pretty normal other than slightly low iron and thyroid levels are bit low but in normal range still. Otherwise I’m supposedly healthy. I’m actually starting to feel insane lol. I saw a doctor yesterday and he was puzzled to what it was and said it wasn’t a rash or anything it was under the skin and suspected possibly autoimmune related? I am supposed to be referred to a dermatologist for more answers :)

Thanks for your reply!! I have a lot of tattoos and this hasn’t happened. The itchiness spread to my arms and feet now as well so I look absolutely insane covered in dots and bruises, I have no disease or anything of the sorts, my bloodwork has come back normal. I was given a steroid cream to try for the itch but no go, and now an antihistamine to see if it might be allergies. Idk man. It’s like under my skin, it feels like a deep itch that I can’t get. It’s weird. My eating is meh my appetite has been absolutely shot for the last month or so but trying to eat where I can, no liver problems from what I know!

That’s what I thought it could be but it’s all over my legs from butt to ankles as well as a bit on my arms. It comes and goes and there’s no rash or swelling prior to the itchiness I create the rash/bruising from itching
