Spontaneous allergic reactions.
Face blown up in hives - eyes swelled shut (one eye swelled up SO much that I now have a black eye from the pressure on the skin)
Hives all over the body
EXCRUCIATING abdominal pain.
Cold sweats
All before 7 am.
This is the worst "reaction" I've had to anything - though I think it was compounded by the towels from the locker room - maybe the detergent they use? It got exponentially worse when I used one to wash my face.
I'm feeling very defeated. Very. I'm just not sure what the point of all of this is - what is this doing to help me? Are the "gains" from the treatments causing this outweighing the side effects? Not a damn fucking clue. 73 degrees in my office and I'm shivering like its the dead of winter and I'm outside. Wednesday I see the doctor - hopefully she'll have some options for me. If not, I'm going to have to make a decision. I need to work. I need to actually be able to see out of my fucking eyes. What am I going to do if this pops up while I"m freaking driving down the road?!
