It's back!

So, I'm sure no one on my Flist remembers the terrible rash I had last summer but... sadly, it's back.

( Cut for talk of my rash )

No, that's just unfair.

Maybe it's a summer allergy? Heat? Fun stuff like that. I hope you can figure it out and kill it!

I'm just boggled. I don't know. I might call the pharmacy and see if somehow my meds can have a bad reaction with the sun (that apparently only happens in summer??) What, I don't know.

Yeah, I've been putting hydrocortizone cream on it in the hopes it helps. We'll see I guess.

Yikes that sucks Sarah! *hugs* I have some kind of rash thing going on too and I'm going to see the doctor in about half an hour. If she tells me anything good I'll pass it on ;).

It is pretty awkward. I don't know... I think I'm going to have to call the pharmacy and maybe see if somehow my medicines are making me break out when in the sun. Though you'd think that would happen all the time, all year.

What made it go away last year? Surely there must be reason as to why you're getting this rash, it also seems quite agressive since you have it all over and not just in one place.

I'm sorry and I hope it clears away soon, I can only imagine how annoying it must be. Did you ever get it before or just last summer?

I just eventually went away. I had been putting tons of different anti-itch creams and like hydrocortizones on it and after about a month it went away. It was the first time I ever had a rash like that so I had never even dealt with it before last summer.

Well, hopefully it won't take too long to go away now ;)

Because there's nothing worse than feeling itchy all the time.

Ugh, I'm so sorry. That sounds awful. :( Do you think it could possibly be heat-related, since it appeared during the summer both times?

lepapillon June 4 2007, 21:47:49 UTC

That's the only cause I can come up with. But last summer was the first time it ever happened so I don't know what I did differently then either. It's mind boggling. My mom says I'm just getting old so my skin is reacting differently.
