Hi,
I have been on here so much lately with one thing or another, but today I vomited because I had eaten a quarter of an Easter egg after lunch and it was so rich that it made me feel sick and my stomach hurt. I felt that at any moment I could be sick and felt really flushed and hot, so I went to the bathroom and stood over the toilet (sorry), and willed vomiting. I was sick a little but still felt rotten so tried again and was sick more. It seemed quite forced and I was so flushed that when I was finished and I stood up my neck was really itchy. I checked in the mirror to see if there was a rash, but there wasn't; I think it was because I had been so hot, but then I saw my eyes and I have so many very tiny red dots all around and across the bridge of my nose.
I know that they are broken blood vessels from being sick.
I periodically get small red dots the size of pinheads and they never go away (I only get a few a year and my Mum has them too - most of the time they turn into freckles but I have about 6 red ones throughout my body). Because of this I am terrified that all these new ones will stay. It looks as if someone has gotten a brush and splattered me with red paint.
Has anyone ever gotten these before and have they always faded after a short while? Also, does it mean I may have a clotting issue? (I have always seemed to bruise easily but they always fade very quickly too, and the other week I slammed my arm and only had a faint bruise that showed up after a few days because I think initially it had been deep). I also had a tooth pulled about 5 months ago and it had clotted by the time she checked the first time.
I hope that this is the last time I have to write here for a while. I want my life to be anxiety free.... :(
Thank you all. :blush:
