I think! This is me at the DR's office again yesteday. They have started to form tiny blisters. It's hot in certain areas. It's more an irritation than an itch. My DR was very alarmed when he saw me. But he had to get out the text book to see what it was. He ruled out hives and all the others common rashes. This was anything but common. Lucky me! It's something called erythema multiforme. It's a more serious condition but not life threatening, unless it's gets inside my body and my face then I might have issues. So far it's just my lips.

He started me on a HEAVY dose of steriods. He said the dr on Monday did not give me a heavy enough dose. Nor did he give me an anti viral medication which he should have. I probably should have that in the first 24hrs.

I feel ok for the most part. It's mostly mental. Trying to keep my spirits up and not let this get me down. Especially about missing work and other things I should be doing. Especially when I don't feel REALLY sick. I just LOOK really sick! I feel like I have leprosy or something. The little round circles are turning colors and that's something else we'll have to keep on.

In the meantime I am trying to keep myself busy. I've printed lots of pictures to hang up around the house. Stuff I haven't had time to do. I want to work in the yard, but it wasn't recommended for fear of making it worse.

The tempts are getting really nice in the evening now so we try to be out there a lot more with the dogs. It's too cold to swim. I also have a few good mystery books I'm reading. We went to the library last weekend. So if anyone has any good reading recommendations I'm all for it. I love to read! I might pick up my crossstitch again too.
