I have been having endo pain near the end of my breast bone for quite sometime mostly after lap. For the longest time it felt like a "shelf"... is the best way I could describe it at the time. (which def links up with feeling as if I were pregnant before I was diagnosed) It ran along where my bra band would be. It has lessened, but I have felt it more now just at the end of my breast bone (almost like heart burn) now that I know I have endo and am aware of how it feels, I know it is the endo causing it. Dr. confirmed my endo was all the way up to my lungs right where I was describing the "shelf" pain. The past few days I haven't been feeling great and tonight when I got out of the shower I noticed a bright blue bruise right where I have been having the pain. Haven't had the bruising there before/ have never linked the bruising to endo since I have been diagnosed. So happy I found this post...

I sometimes wonder if it's also tissue related and can appear in other areas.

During my period, I keep getting bruises from my thighs, legs, etc.

It actually feels like a horror movie, considering I live alone.

I have just googled this as i have noticed more and more than my arms and legs are constantly coming up with bruises ?!?

I’ve been writing daily/weekly notes on my flare ups and this unexplained bruising that’s been happening for the last year and a half(same timing of my bleeding from endo)..connected tonight. I’m relieved and excited..

Yessszsz!!! Just noticed connection tonight. Googled it and ur question came up. Yes
