Okay, I know this is wacky.

I just noticed my toe nails are turning purple at the base of the nail. The toes themselves are okay, although my circulation isn't perfect.

Has this happened to anyone in treatment?

I just started tindamax and armour thyroid along with all my herbals 2 weeks ago and now this.

Any experience or opinions are appreaciated!

Had that happen this past summer along with a whole lot of spontaneous bruising in legs and arms. My LLNP said it's related to babs.

I was on Mino, Bactrim, and Alinia, with Buhners' CSA blend and Cats claw, and pulsing TindaMax.

The marks are still there from July-ish

weird....

Thanks gmb! Come to think of it, I've had bruising on my legs that past 2 months or so and I have NO clue where they came from.

I'm clumsy, but with so many bruises, that adds up.

I just came off Bactrim and Doryx and started the tindamax and simultaneously the armour thyroid.

Thank you so much! I don't see my LLMD until the beginning of Dec. At least now I won't fully panic. :-)

I take photos and keep a log book on when new bruises appear. Sometimes I can see a 7 day cycle.

New ones have stopped for the past two months (which is odd since I feel like crap) But some that I got in July are still visible, where initially they would fade in a week to ten days.

I look at the bruises as more of a nuisance
than a symptom.
