Hope this does not appear twice, as the first post got lost.  It always
amazes me that some interesting questions that are posted are not answered.
Not the usual situation and a little more complicated but a question that
would be of interest to many patients or to be patients.   The poster does
not specify how long the bleeding was there before going to the hospital,
because if long enough, there would be no more problem.  And did the
bleeding resume when going home from the hospital after being bloodless in
the hospital.   As we know, there can be problems in the mouth that do not
originate in the mouth.   I could elaborate, but it would involve crohns and
probably be unwelcome in this group.   But the person is speaking of a tooth
problem and would like an answer, though it may be speculation.   It is
certain that this presents a dilemna  that the poster would appreciate any
comments?    The timing of the bleeding should be clarified, especially
whether or not the bleeding resumed when the poster went home from the
hospital.    Or did that good fortune carry over from the hospital.

friend slumpy calls these my "funny pills". These medications have helped me
a good deal as I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder, and am an
agorahobic. I did take a medication called seraquel and the strangest thing
happened when I was in the hospial. I have the worst gingivitus known to
man. My gums bleed constantly. When I eat a sandwich, there is a half ring
of blood on the bread. But in the hospital I could not get my gums to bleed.
No matter how aggressively I brushed there was no blood. I looked at my gums
and it was as if they were bloodless which is the opposite of what usually
happens. Usually there is a very ghoulish scene when I just brush my teeth
in the most delicate way. I actually brushed my teeth with the utmost force
and hardness and there was no sign of blood. Could this have been the
seraquel?

Do you also bruise easily?
