The Hives

No, not the band. The kind you get from an allergic reaction. I’ll spare you all a photo, but suffice it to say, they’re pretty bad. 

I have a heart murmur and have to take an antibiotic before I go to the Dentist. I forgot to take my amoxicillian. No biggie, they just can give it to me there. Except they didn’t have any, so they gave me something else since I (had) no known allergies. 

Imagine my surprise when about 10:30 Friday night I looked down and saw hives all over my chest. I pulled my shirt up (I was at my hotel after the wedding reception) and discovered they were all over my stomach too. 

They’ve now spread to my back, and started to go onto my legs and arms. 

I’m itchy. I’ve dosed on Claritin and Benadryl. It’s not pretty. I have to call the Dentist and ask what they gave me…and make another appointment because as I was biting on an M&M last night, I managed to chip a tooth! So now I need to have that filled.

Ugh. Hopefully the hives go away soon and get under control. This sucks!

Have a great week friends!
