You're not only low on iron, but perhaps also on other nutrition. If you don't see a doctor soon the symptoms will get worse dramatically.

In Western countries (especially in the USA) people of your weight are developing diseases like scurvy of which you might have the first signs. Scurvy is lethal, but easy to cure, see a doctor soon.

Get to a doctor, or at the very least a nutritionist.

How about losing weight under the direction of a physician and getting the necessary tests done to see what your health issues are? This is no way to get solutions or a "cure".

Scurvy? Uh, okay. You're probably bruising easily because your iron is low (anemia). See your doc about starting an iron supplement. Also, your tissues are probably under duress because of your weight. A dear friend of mine who was very overweight seemed to always have horrible bruises, probably because her nutrition was messed up.
