What is this?

So, what is this thing all over my body? They thought it was scabies... but the treatment didn't work, and apparently that's odd. I actually used it how I was supposed to, you know.. follow the directions. But it still didn't work. I went back today. They took three vials of blood to try and figure out what it was. They are sending it to Nashville to find out. The doctor said, "Not to scare you, but this could be a blood virus that your body is trying to get rid of." I was like.. ok... people get viruses all the time... right? Well he said that it MIGHT be one that if it gets in your heart it could kill you. Now, I'm really doubting it's anything that serious. I'm thinking it's really just a stress rash, but then again, I really haven't been that stressed out lately. I've had wonderful things going on, and I've been sleeping awesomely. I just don't know what's going on. I don't think the doctor's do either. I'm not scared, I just want to know what the heck it is. He gave me some cream that just treats redness and swelling on the skin, then some kinda of medicine that kills like EVERYTHING in your body that shouldn't be there. I read the little pharmacy thing and it said mites, parasites, bacteria, abnormal blood cells, and a bunch of other things. Eww... what if I have bugs in my blood? That's gross. I am an animal person, but microscopic animals don't excite me too much. lol. Then he gave me some prednisone to take. It's really detailed instructions. I don't know how well this will go.. I'm really bad with following directions and even TAKING my medicine. If it makes me feel the least bit funny I usually stop taking it. I HATE side effects. Anyway, Valentines Day is coming up... lol. I have not made my decision on a boyfriend yet. I'm not sure if I want to. There are three guys who are wanting me to go out with them... but I don't know. I wonder if I just keep all three for now as friends if I'll get three times the amount of chocolate? lol.. doubt it. But then again... I did have a boyfriend last year and didn't get anything. Not that that is the real reason for getting a boyfriend, but it's a plus lol. Oh yeah... Chris and Angie... remember.. you forgot me last year. You have to make up for it this year... cough cough. Anyway, I'm going to take a shower, even though it's extremely painful.. then go back to sleep. Becuase sleep is good when there's crap in your blood.
