Hi, If this helps reassure you my son is 5 and his poor little legs are

always bruised.

Typical, active boy. The slightest bump and there goes another bruise. He

just learned to ride his tricycle a couple weeks ago, and bumps the peddles

all the time. Yesterday I told DH that DS's legs looked like someone had just

sat and kept poking him.

He was checked for anemia and that is ok, so Ped says it's just typical boy.

Hope this helps,

Rhonda

Debbie, my sister was almost hospitalized for anemia and looked like a

walking corpse. It took her 3 doctors-her regular MD, a hemotologist and a

gastroentologist and intravenous iron to have a diagnosis of celiac. She's

now doing and feeling great. Have you been tested? Helene
