| Argh it itches! |

I finally got a chance to go to the doctor's this morning about my right arm and my right leg.
On these two appendages are several patches of what look like, itch like, and feel like dry skin, however, all manners of creams, therapies and everything else have not relieved the itching.
As such, they itch so bad I was scratching them, sometimes on purpose and sometimes not even realizing it, causing me to rip open the skin and make the spots bleed and stuff.
It was annoying because nothing would help.
Anyway, as I said, I got to the doctor today and found out that I have, "Contact dermitis" meaning that something has caused some kind of reaction, but yet only on my right side.
Really weird. I got a small shot and a prescription for an oral medication that will help the spots. Which is great, because I'm glad I didn't have a serious problem on the week of my birthday. |

I paid a visit to the Health and Wellness Center today to see if they could figure out what the hell is wrong with me.
I didn't have a fever, and I was negative for a Strep test. My left tonsil is inflamed, but not the right one, so I don't have complete tonsilitis. So, for intensive purposes, she gave me cough syrup and throat pills and told me it's just a virus, I'll be better in seven to ten days.
Which is what I was told last time.
So we'll see how this goes. If I still feel sick by the beginning of next week, I'll probably go to a real doctor and see what they have to say about it. |
