The only answer you will get here is: go see your doctor.
( and then try some more of that 420)

Have you considered scheduling one a little early?? It's not unheard of, and if I were you, I would!

I would make an appointment now. Unexplained bruising is a very serios medical symptom, with or without HIV. For example, it is a symptom of leukemia. Not to alarm you, but for your safety please see your doctor. If you can't get in soon, perhaps a visit to your local "walk-in" or urgent care center would be in order.
