Quick post...If those of you who pray would do that for me today I would so appreciate it. I woke up this morning covered in hives from head to toe. I have had them so badly in the past that I had to be hospitalized because I wasnt able to breathe. None of the docs I have seen in the past can figure out why I keep getting them (This is the 5th time in 4 years). They are very itchy obviously, but the thing thats the worst is that they are very large hives and very hard & thick so its painful to walk (they are on the bottoms of my feet) and the largest ones are near my elbows and knees making it hard to bend since the areas are so swollen. The hubs says I look like the elephant man...I forgave him since he kissed and told me how much he loved me even if I did look like something out of a horror show...Gotta love the guy !
Anyway, went to doc's first thing this am and they shot me up with some Prednisone and some other stuff but I am really feeling crappy.
I do have lots more wool to put up for sale, but I think it will have to wait till this evening. I will be checking my email frequently though so if you have questions about the wool, just ask. Since you know I hate to post without pic...here is the newest kit I have available...
You would actually get 3 heart patterns drawn on monks cloth and all the wool to hook them...then you can embellish them anyway you choose like I did with the old rusty keys. |
Ok...I am going now
Grace to you,
Margie
Oh Margie !!! My heart goes out to you !! One time I had a bad reaction to Aspirin..I had taken it all my life as a child and teenager, but when I was pregnant with my first, Tylenol was on the market and never took anything else since then....except for that fateful day.
ReplyDeleteIt was horrible ...hives the size of my 2 fists together .. And my top lip stuck out past my nose....
Is there anything you've eaten or medication you've taken that may be the culprit ? Any environmental factors ? Cleaners, pesticides ? Latex ? Something is causing it, and if you find the source you can eliminate the problem..I'm praying hard for you !!
Hugs !!!

ReplyDeleteMargie I am so sorry that you are having to deal with hives.Please take care of yourself!Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers!Hugs,Jen
ReplyDeleteHi, Margie - you poor sweet thing! Do they think it could be shingles? My mom had some flare ups and the type of rash you described sounds like it could be that. It sounds awful, and on your feet!! Oh, geez...I hope the shot works. Benedryl and Famotidine together work for allergic reactions, that's what they gave me once at the hospital intravenously. Check with your doctor and see if you can try that.
ReplyDeleteIt works. Email me if you need to chat.
Hugs,
Susan
