Diagnosed With Fibromyalgia. Noticed Mall Red Spots. Have Metallic Smell On Chest And Headache. Guidance?

I'm a 14 year old girl diagnosed with fibromyalgia and have currently been having a metallic smell coming from my chest, almost like the smell of blood. I haven't seen any blood coming from that area but I have had some bleeding through the skin on different areas of my body I had just ignored. Would that be in line with the blood smell coming from my chest? I also have small red spots show up in my skin where the blood bleeds through, I think that's where it stains the skin. Recently the metallic smell on my chest has become quite strong and is giving me a headache. Please help, I don't want to go to the doctor and cause my parents any more trouble. Thank You.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The small red spots that you have could be related to fibromyalgia. The metallic smell from the chest needs to be investigated with a few blood tests to find out the cause.
