like beating your head against the wall
Jul. 22nd, 2010 05:34 pmToday is the first day since the weekend that I haven't wanted to rend the skin from my arms. I don't know if the rash was poison ivy or brown-tail moth or something else, but it is nasty. Fortunately, the worst is on my forearms with a bit on my stomach. During the day it's been liberal applications of creams. In the early evening I've been taking large doses of antihistamines and sleeping my life away.
Today most of the spots have reduced to little red dots and the huge mounded red scars are reduced to more subdued stripes. I was quite productive at work because I could actually sit still and concentrate a bit.
It has to be better by the weekend though, I've got to work on the van and that will by hot sweaty, sticky work under the best of conditions. Additional bonus itching just isn't on the program. Not at all.
