Brief Answer:
Meet a Hematologist

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I gone through the picture and report. They are skin echymoses and are pretty dark. I am sure the echymoses happen because of high PT. The TSH is too high and I am not sure why was it not controlled. Both of them should be related. I am unable to understand about MVP is it mitral valve prolapse in the medical history.

In fact your current doctor (Endocrinologist I guess) should be able to throw some light on the skin echymoses and why was the thyroid problem not controlled with high dose of thyronorm. Though medium size, since the Prothrombin time is high I would suggest a consult with Hematologist / Medical Oncologist.
