Hospitals

Hello blogosphere!

Once again I address you unhealthily (is that a word?). Before last week I can't remember the last time I went to the hospital. Then, Wham! Strep throat. Went to Urgent Care in Mt. Vernon. Then yesterday, BAM! severe allergic reaction to drugs they gave me for strep, landing me in the ER at Northwest Hospital (yes, the one I work at). My entire upper body is covered-COVERED- in hives. My upper arms, shoulders, neck, chest, and face (yes, face), are more hives than skin. Completely covered. It has spread to my legs as well, but they're not nearly as bad. So, I remain in bed, just taking different medication. It's a little uncomfortable this condition. I hope the meds work quickly.

P.S. sorry to complain.

P.P.S. I have a picture...but I'm not sure I feel like sharing. I'll probably be a recluse for the next few days.
