HIV(es)

I have officially been diagnosed with HIVES!


These are the mild pictures, after a few doses of Benadryl.


May hands started to swell and itch on Easter weekend, but I didn't think much it.  As the week progressed, so did the hives.  By Friday night I was covered from Head to Toe.  My feet were swollen so bad it hurt to walk.  The pharmacy tec looked at me like I must be an alien.  She really had a long, hard stare.


After a trip to Urgent Care on Friday night, with lots of drugs, I thought I was good.  Nope.  They don't want to stay away and keeping popping back up.  So Monday I have an appointment with the allergist.  I guess we will see what I am allergic to.  Maybe the dogs?  Or the children?  Or the Y chromosome?  All very likely possibilities.
