I decided that i needed to get on here and post something cuz i've been a slacker with it lately... Its not a happy post but here it is.... I had a very eventful & might i add LONG night, last night!
It all started out with me getting sick last week and being put on this antibiotic to help me so i could swallow. I saw my doctor and he told me that he is pretty positive that my mono is back and contagious right now and that its most likely the cause of my sore throat. It really sucks! So the low down of my eventful, LONG, horrible night.... At about 11:30 i decided to lay down in bed and read my scriptures so i could go to sleep well when I started to read i started to itch really bad on my tummy...(the itch had started earlier that day, and got worse as the day progressed)I laid there in bed and just dug at my back and tried to make it not itch but nothing was working, so i called my mom and asked what she thought i should do, she said to go to Harmon's and get some itch cream and some wonderful benadryl... i was not feeling so well and my wonderful neighbor (whom i love dearly) Chantel was running to Harmon's for milk and she said dont worry about it she'd get it for me...about 5 minutes later she brought it to me, i took some and waited about 3o minutes to see if it was working and it hadn't done a thing to me. So i called my mom in tears because i couldn't stop scratching my tummy and she said lets go to the ER. So we did at about 1:00 (am) and ended up getting home 2:30,but i then laid on my bed trying to fall asleep but the itch was still there. Turns out that I had an allergic reaction to my antibiotic.... The ER doctor said that the antibiotic and my mono combined caused the reaction and caused me to break out in a very itchy, swollen, puffy BRIGHT red ring rash around my tummy and back... I am doing better, but i still have a little itch and a super bad rash. Oh and in the process of scratching my back i scratched off 2 moles.... don't dig at your back when it itches you may scratch off moles... (it was very painful) But no one worry i am ok and alive :)

I'm glad you are okay. How come you always get the crazy things?! What an awesome Mom you have. Take care. Regan says hi.
My goodness. That really stinks. Itching can be one of the most annoying things EVER! So is your mono doing better too? I hope things settle down a bit for you. For us, when it rains, it poors. And I think it's like that for most people.
Wow! Sorry to hear that. I'm glad you're doing a little better. I hate it when I itch. But at least usually I can itch it enough to where the itching stops. Sounds like you were probably pretty miserable. You have such a sweet mom. Tell her I say hi.
glad you have figured out the itching issue. Isn't mono a virus? Why did the doctor give you a prescription for a virus?
I am so sorry you had to go through all that. We have missed you lately. I hope you are feeling better. You have had quite the month.
