Help! I am losing stregnth in my legs, and bruises bruises bruises!!

I'm not sure whats going on here. I hope someone can shed light on this. In the mornings, not every time but a few times lately, when I stand up from bed, my legs have no stregnth. My mattress is on the floor, so I am low to the ground. I can move my legs no problem, I have no pain, no numbness, they just give way. I have to crawl and shake them, then I can stand.. its wobbly at first but then ok. I am fine throughout the rest of the day. I also have bruising. Once, I counted something like 25 or so on each leg. I have bruising elsewhere, but no NEARLY as much as on my legs. <p> I am 15 months post op, at goal with 130 pounds lost. I'm not sure if this is B-12 deficientcy or something else. My mind is sharp, I'm not foggy and can recall anything. The last time I had labs was back in June, and they were all normal. So says the doc. I do not take B-12 suppliments, or any suppliments except for my multi vit. I am on Welbutrin though. (Would this be a side affect?) Oh, And I'm bad on getting my protein in. Some times I get it in, sometimes I might get only 25 or so. Any ideas? Thanks a ton, love you all, Annie
