From Bad to Worse

I was going crazy. Itching all of the time. My legs, face, neck, chest, sometimes arms. I have tried EVERYTHING... got new laundry soap and washed everything, went back to soy milk, stopped exercising, called my dermotologist, Michael gave me a blessing, and took benedryl up the wazoo. Finally, I took the advice of my wise mother (once again... ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER), and I saw a doctor. I told her about my hives. She looked at my legs and goes... "ohhhh, umm, that is too big for a cream, uhh it looks like folliculitis." And that it is. An infection, STAPH INFECTION UHHHH, in my hair follicles causing them to itch TERRIBLY! So, naturally, I scratch them, which causes hives. Joy.

Can you see the little red bumps everywhere? They look harmless, but ITCH LIKE THE DICKENS!!!!

All over my body. Freakin sick!So... ta daaaaa... more drugs than anybody should ever take. 1 zyrtec a day, benedryl cream on real bad outbreak spots, 3 antibiotics a day, and a nice oatmeal bath tonight. PLEASE cross your fingers that this goes away! The doc said to give it a week. If there is no change, I will be seeing an Allergist.Poor Michael. I'm pretty sure all I ever say is "I'm Itchy". He says... "Hello Itchy". hahahaha, he has been SO good to me through all of it. Bless his heart! He tries to keep me from scratching by distracting me. He's so kind :) Anyway, that's the update! I'll let ya know how this current treatment goes!
