Guest guest Posted October 21, 2002 Report Share Posted October 21, 2002 Howdy! Doodie! Oh... I mean Dodie! :-) Second time now. Last time I thought I had mosquito bites that kept multiplying. But this time I figured it was chiggars. Then I thought I was just extra dirty after the work on the house today... Wrong! When I took a shower, it was evident! Hives! Anyone else have this problem? Guess that can be neuro as well - as everything! I know my face has been peeling bad - and now has started scabbing and bleeding. That was something they thought was Lupus, but since it covers more than just the traditional butterfly pattern (though that is present as well) - seems to not be. Well, just curious... about the hives. Hope you don't mind the pun... I'm sure it's not the first time. Happened totally naturally. We do say that sometimes out here in this neck of the woods - like you do in yours I'm sure. Where was that again? Up by KC? Do you live up north in St. Joe? Just trying to remember. Thanks to any who read this and respond to the hives issue. Once I can consider a fluke - but twice - even if it is separated by a few months - is probably more than a fluke. And... to head off anyone... I take very few meds. In fact, I haven't been taking my Toprol as prescribed (partly due to my doc not refilling it as soon as they promised). Otherwise, I have taken herbs, but with all the travels, even that slacked off. So I'm basically on a pretty plain Jane diet. Haven't even eaten anything odd (though most people consider what I eat as " odd " - certainly not " typical American " - too healthy :-) Also, I know that if it gets too bad - take Benadryl. I'm kinda lettin it go a bit - to see if it will start to take over my body as it did last time - and it is getting a pretty good jump on me. Catcha later.
