Health Update
I am not a happy puppy! Jesus! Heal!
So my allergic reaction to the psychiatric drugs finally manifested today. Cute rashes started to pop up all over my body (yes, even my rashes are cute -- very understated but rashes nevertheless). On my arms, back. My butt is starting to itch a little bit. Oh, and my ears are flushed! The back of my ears are so itchy. Arghh.
It's actually a bit delayed since I stopped popping the pills last Monday. The doctor said stop taking the pills if you develop a rash. Well, I stopped and then I got a rash. I guess it takes a while before the drugs go through your system. I decided to stop because I already got sick Monday morning (while on the retreat -- which I still need to write about, except that I have to deal with this sickness first, ughh; I also need to work, waaaa). I still feel light-headed every once in a while. It's like having a headache without pain. Although thank god my fever is gone, after I took copious amounts of Tylenol and liquids last Tuesday.
I'm a little concerned by this latest health issue because #1: I just came from retreat, and the recharge I was hoping for was completely pulled from under me; and #2: since this has something to do with my brain, I feel a little wacko right now -- which worries me a little since, you'll never know. So my attitude is to wait it out until the symptoms subside, and just be honest to the people I interact with like some clients I had to reschedule -- and rickey.org readers who expect me to be on point, dios mio, the pressure! LOL. And you know what else is happening? I am talking a lot. Talk. Talk. Talk. Talk. Talk. I think I just took a seat inside the loony suite.
Ironically, I went to my primary doctor Wednesday night, and he said I do have an allergic reaction and I should take some anti-hystamines. Waaaa, more drugs. I hate Benadryl.
(Shaking my head at my self-induced drama-filled life... hahaha. Heal, Jesus, heal!)
I love you all!
