um, no, actually, by saying a place no one should be bleeding from that doesn`t give it away, to me anyway... i am thinking ears or eyes (EMT experience and all) have you had a recent head injury? how often are you taking imitrex, and how certain is the dx of pseudo tumour cerebri? as imitrex is a powerful vasoconstrictor it can cause some hemorraeging from any blood vessel you can think of.

some AEDs can cause blood thinning (i have the blood clotting time of a haemophiliac on aspirin--well, not *that* bad, but... ) in particular phenytoin can cause bone marrow suppression leading to blood thinning and lamictal can interfere with prostaglandin action in the platelets because it is a p/q- and n- type calcium channel blocker.
