TMI ....Carma is right... payback for bloody palms...

Sorry DZSAi - just not something you hear every day. You'll be beautiful for the wedding. Dont worry.

Marti,
Have you been out in a field or in the woods recently? When you described the bumps in a line it sounded to me like chiggers. They hide in the grass then they make burrows under your skin.

You should have a doctor take a look at them though; you have enough on your mind with graduation and the wedding coming up!

DZLM,
Tracy

Ok, so assuming it's bed bugs, how do you get rid of them?

dzsaigirl 05-02-2002 08:56 PM

I dunno, but I stripped my bed, washed everything, removed the matress and boxspring, dusted the bed frame, vacuumed under and around the bed, sprayed bug spray and put everything back together just in case. I don't know what else to do. I could have slept in my brother's room, but he is now also done with school and back at home!

I doubt it could be dust mites, considering you are just NOW having a reaction to something. Best bet...go to see a dermatologist and get treatment now...before the wedding!
LOL!

Maybe you have hives. My roommate woke up one day with hives all over. She thought that they were bites. She had gone to a tanning booth and was lying out in the sun which caused the skin reaction. Maybe you have Lyme Disease which can cause a bull's eye type of rash. Go to a doctor. I hope that you are healthy and rash free for your wedding!:D

dzsaigirl 05-03-2002 12:43 AM

I don't think that Lyme disease is as common in the urban southern US...I have a regular checkup on Wednesday, so if they are still there then, I will have them seen to.

Peaches-n-Cream 05-03-2002 12:56 AM

I hope not. My sister (biological) had a rash for a week and it went away. It turned out that she actually had Lyme Disease which is very common here. It took a year and a half of health problems before she was diagnosed. She still has residual problems. I hope that your rash goes away soon. Good luck!

Wait, bug bites in a line? Ask your doctor about scabies, especially if you've been around little kids.

dzsaigirl 05-03-2002 11:13 AM

They are random, and there is one place with three in a row. They are not all in a line. They seem to be fading with Benedryl spray. I haven't had any new ones in 2 days since I washed my linens and everything. They also only happen overnight. I didn't develop them during the day.

dzsaigirl 05-03-2002 01:35 PM

Okay, I called my allergist and I am going in TODAY. I can't stand looking at myself with all these spots. I'll let you know what the diagnosis is...hopefully there will be one.

dzsaigirl 05-04-2002 09:34 PM

I went to the doctor yesterday. She thinks that I have been bitten by a spider or spiderS. She gave me cortisone cream to put on the bites and things look considerably better today.
