Fleas? Bed bugs?
Every morning lately, I wake up with little itchy red bumps on various parts of my body. Like bug bites. WTF is this? I am getting married in 1.5 months and my body needs to look milky white, not like I have bites!

Have you recently switched--
Laundry Detergents or Fabric softeners? Lotions?
Your skin could be having a reaction to something you apply before bed, or something in the detergents you use to clean the sheets.

No. In fact, I washed my sheets again to see if that was it. These are definitely bites or something. I would think I have a mild case of chicken pox if I were not already immune!

yes. Two inside cats and two small dogs that live outside in the day and inside in their kennel at night. I checked my cats for fleas around their head, ears, belly but didn't find any fleas or flea dirt. I haven't checked the dogs 'cause they are stinky (pugs get mighty stank...I dunno why!). I have stripped my bed and I am washing the linens on hot. I have inspected the matress to see if there are any visible things to be found. I might go to the dermotologist tomorrow and see what he thinks. But it has to be bug bites since they occur in sort of clusters or lines. Bug bites follow patterns because they repeat bite you. I will take Benedryl before bed to try to halt the action if that is truly what it is.

Well actually, the natural scent of a woman (and man) is an aphrodisiac . . .
Napoleon used to write his wife Josephine before coming home from campaigns and would instruct her not to bathe for at least a week before his visit . . .

Somehow I don't think that I would be able to stand myself if I did that!

Last year the same thing happened to me... I couldn't figure out what it was for the life of me. But after about a month my ag major roomate (who knows everything about bugs) came into my room and looked at my matterss... sure enough it was bed bugs!!! How gross is that?! So look at your mattress on both sides of the seams, this is where they hide. They may be easier to see in the morning because they feast after dark and get bigger. When we found them in my bed they were mostly around the corners. i hope this isn't what it is, cause it was such a headache to get rid of them, but i wanted to let you know that could be it!!

I really don't think this is funny. I am getting married in a month and a half and I now have spots all over myself. I am just seeking advice as to what this could be. Be careful or karma might just reach around and slap your butt...

Aw could just be reactioon from the guy you are getting married to?
The mind does silly things to You!
I wake up and say where did this bite come from?
I am single being 78 years old so not messing with women!
I have no animals! Kids and Animals, WOW!
The mind does weird things!
Hell the first time and only time I had CRABs was from My then seperated wife! Scared hell out of me! I started stabing them with an ice pick!
She had to get from a Brother of mine!
Well We are Divorced and He and I are Still Brothers!
