    Default A RASH! It figures!

    So I'm supposed to go to bed in two hours, I'm taking the GRE in the morning, and my arms and legs have been getting itchier and itchier over the last several hours. Now my arms are burning because I've scratched off all the skin, and my arms and legs are itching to drive me insane. I have to concentrate on this fucking test in the morning. I need to study some more tonight. I do not need to be scratching off my fucking skin! How am I supposed to write essays and concentrate on algebra for four hours when my arms and legs are crawling with this maddening itch??

    What do I DO??

    ^^^ Tea bags will help? Really? I have that around the house... maybe I'll run a bath and dump a bunch of tea in there. Individual tea bags won't help me much since the rash completely covers my arms and legs.

    Now it's spreading to my butt and the back of my neck. Little bumpy rash that is ITCHY AS ALL SWEET FUCK... oh my. I'll take some Benadryl before I go to bed but I have to study some more and I can't effing focus!!

    I'll take Benadryl before bed, but I was hoping to stay up and study. Benadryl knocks me out completely in about ten minutes, so I don't want to take it for another couple hours yet.

    I have no idea what caused it but it might be hives. Sometimes if I'm stressed (even just a little bit) I break out in little itchy bumps all over. I've also gotten this several times for no apparent reason; I'm probably allergic to something but I have no idea what. I haven't eaten anything unusual over the last few days. But usually when it's food-related, it's on my face and covering my lips, and this time it's not on my face (yet, anyway). Right now I don't really care where it came from, I just want it to go!!

    Well when I had hives, they started out like three tiny mosquito bites, and they eventually spread all over and merged into each other....I dunno how else to describe it.

    I've heard to using cooled tea bags to reduce dryness and ithciness, but I've never tried it myself. Specifically chamomile tea bags. I'd say it's worth a shot to maybe bathe in them. Wait!?!?! Did you ever hear of using cool compresses with milk? What is that for? i've heard of that for something ....maybe sunburn? IDK ....I'm thinking outloud and probably not making any sense.

    Good luck Yek. I have my fingers crossed for you!
