I just broke out in hives
 

I think it was the result of last night, and the night befor that.

Any thoughts/suggestions? It's starting to itch, I should add.

benadryl or another antihistamine, not in excess cuz ayayayayyyyy

i just re-awoke and i want bloody marys

They caesars, damn it! And darn good, at that!

I'm not sure if I should injest anything more. I may spontaneously combust.

the bloody mary was invented in new york. canuckistan is an alternate reality.

mmmm.... tomato.... & cold vodka...

Since moving to Toronto, I've had at least 2 caesars wih HORSERADDISH in them. FOr the love of...... Oh, it was awfull, I tell you.

Wear corpse-handling gloves.

How would that help my situation?

i too broke out in some horrible skin thing last night as a result of the medication i am taking. new years visits to the hospital are always good for a laugh.

It's in my blood!

Oh dear, that sounds much worse. How are you now?

sleepy but ok. they gave me a shot of something or other and stopped the medication. i knew that i should not have had that extra beer!

oh this is weird... i have had some skin rash thing too. though mine has been for the last 2 weeks. it started on my lips... i thought it was just a cold sore, but then my eyes itched, and now the back of my left hand and part of my lower back itch... what is weird is that my lips didn't really itch, but they did pus and scar up. i've looked all over the internet and all i can think is that its some sort of infection. bacterial or viral i guess. i've had no headaches or nausea or flu-like symptoms either.

That sounds suspicious. You should see a doctor!

I've determined my thing is from my cat sleeping in my bed, and my skin being exposed to fur over an extended period.

there was a doctor at the christmas party i was at... he said "yeah that looks weird... it might be herpes... that looks weird"

:eek: :confused: :o :eek:

Herpes?!

the herp.

Could be impetigo. Kinda looks like herpes but isn't.

hm it does really sound like impetigo contagiosa... but i had no flu-like symptoms... which according to the wiki, it says thats a part of it. new development today is my itchy hands... on the outside, and particularly the knuckles... which is probably me washing my hands so much this past week. as a kid, i got it sometimes, where i would get really dry skin on my knuckles and my skin would crack and bleed i think in part because of the winter's dry air and the harsh soaps used today. good news is that the honey-coloured scabs on my lips came right off, and my lips look almost normal now... just some scars/scabs on the cracks of my mouth now, but those will heal... my eyes also feel better. i've been using tea tree oil and an aloe vera plant. all-natural ftw. as long as my knuckles dont get worse, i'll be happy. i just coated them in aloe, goodnight all

pics or it didnt happen :P

(i hate when people say that)

i will. of course i couldn't escape pics during the holidays, despite my condition...and if my knuckles get really bad i'll take some pics for u guyz
