Hi everyone! Quick question:-
I'm a had ITP for the past 5 years and I'm pretty good a judging when I need to see my GP. But woke up on Monday with some purple marks on my breast. I've not banged it etc. It's not like paetichie patches it's weird. Plus it throbs and stings when touched. If it's a bruise I've never had anything like it before cos it's not dark purple, red,black or blue. Is this something else??? (Mum had breast cancer)
Any advice welcome x
