Saturday was a pretty decent day other than my wisdom teeth coming in and they oozed a little bit of blood.   Besides that Hemophilia wise I was feeling great. We got an 82’ Camaro Saturday and I was out working on it with my dad. As I was getting into the drivers seat I really bumped my knee on the steering wheel, not thinking any thing of it I just continued working on the car. About an hour later my knee was feeling kind of tight on the inside, so I decided to go inside to prop up and put ice on my knee. By the time I done that it was about 7 pm so I decided I needed  to eat  my dinner. After dinner I went out side to lounge in the yard, watch a movie on Netflix, and talk to my cousin Victor.I would say about 3 hours later I went in to get ready for bed and my wisdom teeth were hurting a lot but was not bleeding (which is a plus). I got me an icepack for my knee and then went on  to bed.

When I woke up in the morning I felt so horrible! My knee was feeling awful, and it felt like my stomach had been kicked hard. To make it even worse I had blood all over my face, all in my hair, and all over my pillow.  See the tricky thing about mouth bleeds is keeping the clot intact so it will not start bleeding again. All that day I felt horrible because my knee was all jacked up, my wisdom teeth were bleeding, and my stomach hurt so bad because of the blood that I had digested from the bleeding teeth. I also get to take this wonderful medication called Amicar when my teeth bleed. Every one who has taken this stuff knows what I am talking about!  It has its very own taste, And I have found that if you take root beer and mix it with the Amicar It weakens the taste and actually tastes a lot better. So what happened in my sleep? Did I beat up my self?  I remember when I was in grade school and Jr. high I would tell people when I have bleeds like this that I was swimming with a shark or I was wrestling with a bear. I done that just so they would not think I was a sissy when I said, “I just woke up this way.” Is there any one else out there who has had some really bad bleeds when they wake up in the morning?

Been there, done that and changed the pillow. I had my wisdome teeth taken out, as they kept on bleeding.

As for the knee bleed, naughty naughty. Not for bumping your knee, but not for taking factor. You knew you had a bleed....need i say more..:-) But i fall into the same pit sometimes, maybe it will go away, just maybe....
