So I apparently have two viruses.
One that's making my tonsil all bitchy.
And one that's giving me a rash.
You know what viruses mean, right? No medications will help. I can help the itching but apparently it will clear up on it's own in SIX TO EIGHT WEEKS.
Although I'm sure while this is happening, my tonsil virus will mutate into a bacterial virus (like it always does) and then I'll have to take anti-biotics and then we'll see if that fucks with the rash at all, hopefully not.
Can you tell I'm not sure how all this virus / body crap works?
Science is hard. Woe.
But apparently I have Pityriasis rosea, although googling images of that doesn't make me feel better because my rash doesn't look like that at all, so I dunno. And having the minimal rash I do on my feet, hands, one leg and arms is rare even for Pityriasis rosea...maybe I'm just special.
I DON'T KNOW.
ALL I KNOW IS THAT I ITCH.
I MUST SHOUT!
LOUD NOISES!!!!!
If I'm not better AT ALL or it gets worse in the next week or so I'll go back to the doctor and ask her to give it another look. But it's definitely not measles (told ya so), not Scarlet Fever and not bed bug bites (PHEW).
Itching makes me very irritable.
I'm sure I'll have no friends left by the time this summer is finally fucking over.
BOO
HISS
