Anyone experience bruising..not injection related

[rollergirl2]

I have noticed over the past week that i have all these bruises on my legs and some of my arms. I typically don't bruise easily. And even today I have probably 5 new bruises.
They are mostly outer thighs.
Stats: woman, 38, anavar week 7 currently 10mg/d.
Supps: milk thistle 3x/d, fish oil 2 caps/day, cranberry ext 3/day.
Gear 3 caps/d.
Other notes: I do take quite a few excedrin which has asprin, but this is not new. Pretty much 10yrs worth and never a problem.
I know fish oil can cause thinning, but I have been taking it for 2 months and this is a "new" issue.

Thoughts ?
Could it be something in the Gear supp?

I do experience bruising but usually it is totally unrelated to gear (to my knowledge). For me it is when I get excessive pumps I'll bruise. Like pumped to where my skin feels like its going to burst - usually happens in my bi's and quads but small surface bruises, no pain but they do get colorful sometimes pretty large. I have assumed its just small blood vessels failing due to being over gorged.

Makes sense, just never thought it would produce actually bruising. I know you can get swollen and sore from lifting heavy...they are quarter to half dollar size bruises. Probably have a good 10 ATM

same size as the ones that I usually get. I would like to hear a few other people chime in though see if anyone else has a differing opinion.

I get these bruises and the only thing I've taken that Rollergirl2 has taken is the excedrin. They are also on my legs and arms, well mostly my legs.

So not related to cycle?

No not at all.

I think it's more what Cuthroat was saying. Heavy lifting. I've gotten these and never taken gear.

i lift some pretty heavy weight and have never experienced them like that... however every now and again i get 'speckles' of tiny little red marks over my face and chest that seem like little broken blood vessels... so it is definately a possibility...

as soon as I read your title I said right away "she is taking fish oil" then clicked and yup you are.

fish oil thins out the blood, the aspirin you are taking makes it worse. DO NOT MIX THE TWO.

do a google search on fish oil and aspirin thinning blood, you will get a lot of hits so you aren't weird... but I would suggest you drop one or the other.

I was talking GEAR the supp from NTBM

I take fish oil too so that could be a contributing factor.

I've been taking nothing, not even fish oil. Well, except the aspirin. Since we're both having it I would think that it's not those supplements. I usually get these bruises the day after a hard workout.

Ok, Cool. Just wanted to clarify
Im stopping fish oil....just to see. I don't like seeing my body bruised

When your blood runs thin, you bruise easy. When your liver is not functioning 100% what bruising you have is more distinct, colorful. I get these when my liver is taxed and they where terrible when I was drinking a lot of alcohol.
