My Face is a War Zone

Apr 04, 2006 08:47

I've got some kind of weird rash thing on my face.
It started Saturday, and so I assumed it was an allergic reaction to the cleanser I used on my face that I had not used on my face previously.
However... it didn't flare up red and angry and then die down, which is my normal reaction to bad stuff on my face. It's still here on Tuesday!

Instead, I had tiny little bumps all over the left side of my face. Now they're all over everywhere, and they're turning red.
And they burn and itch.

Meh.
I've not even been out to be able to catch anything. If Rob had caught something at work, he'd have it too, which he doesn't.

I've not eaten anything I'm allergic to (knowingly), and most of my food allergies tend to hit me in the stomach or throat.
And of the two food allergie that hit my face and throat, I'd have noticed if I'd eaten enough celery, and it would have been noticed if there'd been red bull around me here.

I really have NO idea of what this could be, but it seems to be getting worse.

It's not following any kind of line, which could suggest shingles, thank god! (I've had that before which means I'm pretty likely to get it again, and my GOD it hurts!)
It's just there... and really burning and itching.

And my face looks horrible!
And I can't use makeup to hide it!
