@kjoed53 Prednisone makes my skin thin,
that makes minor scratches become bleeders;
Eliquis makes my blood not able to clot as swiftly.
Together, it’s a perfect storm waiting to happen. In the mornings, I refer to it as my “bloody cocktail.” I have to pay more attention to my movement, so I don’t cut myself. It takes so long to stop bleeding. I’ve been fortunate, it eventually clots. I haven’t had to resort to corn starch.
