dalmation

Yes I almost became a dalmation this past wk. cos i went to buy a bottle of cough syrup from a pharmacy and aft tkg it only TWICE in 2 days, i broke out in rash. it started on tues night where i saw 2 which suddenly increased to 7 red spots in abt half hour on my elbow. i knew sth was wrong so quickly took 2 anti histamine. but no use. I woke up the nxt morn with 2 red huge patches on both my elbow. so i went to see a doc and she said it urticaria, otherwise known as hives but she said it shldnt be anythg serious. so i went home and gulp alot of water to wash out the toxins. guess wat?? the next morn i woek up w my legs and arms all covered in gross looking red patches. eww the thought of it still spooks me. i rushed to the doc again and no choice she had to give me steroids to calm it down. altho occasionally i get pimple outbreaks due to steroids. so again i went home thkg i cld go to work the next day. but hey no!!!!! while i was sleeping that night, i cld feel my face itching like crazy and the next day i woek up w my face slightly swollen and arms and legs again all covered in those red patches again. no choice i headed to a skin doc who also said its hives. and this time more steroids. cos anti hist doesnt seem to work. gosh. as hives tend to only come out at night, i dont even dare to sleep deeply these few nights cos i m just so scared i will wake up the next day w patches all over me again :'( thank God the doc's med work. the spreading of the rash has slowed down. and today finally no more. but the cream he gave is too strong such that my face now is v red. legs too. thk tmr gotta go back and ask for a milder cream. sigh 4th day of mc. cant imagine hw hard i'd hv to slog when i go back. mail box will explode. audit schedules all due. sigh. nvm thank goodness thu is labour day. at least i only need to labour at home on that day. >_<
