Blue,
That sounds awful. I just had labs. Platelets were 270 - low middle range - so I don’t think I have thrombocytopenia.
I used to have larger scratches in the same general area that would appear every morning. I would find spots of blood on my shirt and would see the scratches in the mirror when in the bathroom getting out of the shower. I could feel a little row of scabs where the scratches were like a perforated line.
I rarely get them anymore, but I noticed them yesterday. Much smaller than they used to be. Just curious if others’ scratches from bartonella are similar or ever bleed.
