This is the latest 'look' of my tummy. Mark commented that it reminded him of the world map, I guess what he meant was that my tummy is the 'globe' and those bruises are the 'land masses'. I have had these bruises for weeks now.. everytime an old one fades away, a new one develops. I guess this is the side effect of the nightly heparin injections to prevent blood clots. When one is on these injections for long enough, the medicine takes effect and the reverse happens, thus you get bruised very easily.
Fortunately, it looks more painful than it really is. It is only (really) painful during and immediately after the injection is being administered.
