Taricha granulosa, that looks a lot like the newts who lived in the pond near my friend's house when we were kids! That's so awesome, I used to love watching those guys...

Yeah, the first bruise kinda freaked me out too because it took me so long to say. Actually the one that gave me the biggest case of the willies was one time when he had put a pin in the top of my head, and it started bleeding. Aside from looking really creepy in a stripe of very blonde hair, I'd never seen how much scalp holes really do bleed like mad.

How big are your bruises, and how often? Have you asked your Dr. about why it occurs?

I think I finally sorted it out, as I got a whole raft of bruises this last time out (go figure). It seems to have to do with how deep the needles are (shallow), and how carefully they're placed and/or taken out.
