{Now What?}

Last night we went to the ER and was there from 6:45 PM until after mid-night. They hooked me up to an IV, took a bunch of blood and then put two different kinds of meds in the IV. One being benydryl, that made me so tired and dizzy. Came back in unhooked the IV and said, "your blood work looks great, except your Anemic, (which I already knew) other than that, we just think it is a crazy pregnancy rash. Make your self comfortable, use ice, take benydryl and come back if it gets worse." My nurse said, "it looks like you might be allergic to pregnancy." So after a long expensive night at the hospital, I am in the same condition as I was before, nothing helped. The meds knocked me out, took some swelling down, but not much relief, and this morning I have new patches, and the old patches are just the same, no change. SO NOW WHAT?!

    HEY LADY, CUTE BLOG! GLAD TO SEE YOUR GETTING ALONG IN AZ. I HAD SOMETHING SIMILAR WHEN I WAS PREGNANT WITH RY RY. I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT THE "MEDICAL TERM" WAS BUT BASICALLY THEY SAID IT IS AN ALLERGIC REACTION TO PREGNANCY (I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS POSSIBLE). THEY CLAIM TO DO SOME BEEFED UP HYDROCORTISON AND THAT IT WOULD HELP.... (YA RIGHT) AFTER RY WAS BORN IT WENT AWAY AND I NEVER GOT IT WITH THE OTHERS. SOME DAYS THE PATCHES WERE HOT INFLAMMED AND IRRITATED, THEY MADE MY LEGS LOOK SWOLLEN. SO WEIRD BUT I HOPE YOU FIGURE IT OUT. JUST DON'T SHAVE OVER YOUR PATCHES! (TRUST ME)
    ADD US TO THE LIST.....GOOD LUCK!
