News about me: I have an allergy

Yes. That's right. This 16 year who thought she was invincible apparently now has an allergy. Not the kind that means I have to sneeze and cough and have watery eyes. And fortunately it isn't the kind where my throat swells to the point of no breathing either. No it's the nice allergic reaction of swelling, hives, welts and non-stop itching. :( Ever since Tuesday night, I have had red patches of welts all over my body and I have baking soda/water soaked paper towels covering my legs while I am typing this. My face is swollen, my left hand is very uncomfortable and I have my own cocktail of drugs I get to take every 4 hours. And the best news ---- I have no idea what I'm allergic to.;):roll: It is either the brownie that my mom brought home Tuesday night (it was made from this flour-less stuff) or I didn't get all the chlorine off of me Monday after I went to my mom's water aerobic class. Either way, I'm homebound until I look human again. My top lip was swollen last night and I looked like a cross between Rocky and a Who from Who-ville. :roll:. But of course there is good news. I got to miss co-op today, and I look just freaky enough to miss work tomorrow. And I get to live off of ice cream for the time being. I'll have to work it all off once I'm better, but I get to enjoy some chocolately goodness. And best of all--- I'm on steroids!!!:lol::lol::lol: And no, they don't work.:|:( According to my geometry teacher, I should get a real buzz from them, but I'm only going to be on them for 5 days so apparently that isn't long enough to feel the high.:? and this coming from my geometry teacher. I'm still waiting for my benedryl to kick in so... I'll be sitting here for the next hour or two looking for a way to skin myself before the rest of the drugs knock me out.:) Love ya'll! Julianne
