Nose Bleeds common w/ Lupus ?
Posted: 08-27-07 16:38pm

I have been diagnoised with Lupus for I can say about 5 years and I have never experienced nose bleeds, I started my "monthly" last Monday and I also started having nose bleeds right along with it. It is soo bad that i can stand over the sink while the blood drips out. Clots and everything has been coming out my nose, has anyone experienced this with Lupus? Should I be worried? Sad

I have nosebleeds occasionally, but I blame them on my daily dose of Aspirin. Do you take Aspirin?

low platelets(sp)

you probably have low plate-lets (im not spelling it correctly) in case you dont know what they are, they are little things in your blood that basically clots your blood for you. one of the reasons they were able to diagnose my lupus was because i was having nose bleeds and they were able to see that my plate-lets were so low (i was at 1! now i'm at like 180, if your aywhere under 20 your in danger.)
