its amazing the attention a flesh eating disease will get ya

so i have been a little out of it for a few days and heres why, note the shout out medicality for a belated celebration of victoria day.

I HEART U VEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the mysterious rash that wasnt so bad got markedly worse on the weekend at which point my roomies were like yeah you need to hit the clinica, that shit look real bad.. and i was like i know ill go monday at school if it isnt better cause the ole cash flow dictates that random doctor hits be maintained at lowest expenditures...

well i hadnt seen ash since thurs so when i saw her at school monday the itchy burny puffy redness had begun creeping from mainly chest neck shoulders down to cover entire belly and back, it was so bad i had to wear a scarf to disguise the fact that it was slowly making its itchy red way up my neck and apparently bent on devouring my face. when i showed her she yelped..literally. she was like man thats gross as fuck are you going to the doctor and i was like yup.

so she and lil jen offered to escort me to the student clinic having been there before and even though we all knew we would have to backtrack to hall universitario to make an official appt and pay..

so we go and its the lunch hour so decide to leave and come back, ash has to go to class and jen stays with me. we go back and the lady says they have no appts i have to make an official one at hall uni. so we go there and lacking the word for rash i just take off the scarf and the lady is like ok we have no appointments but you need to be seen today, dont go to the student clinic go straight to dermatology and show them what you showed me until they fit you in then they are gonna send you back here to pay....its amazing what the sight of a flesh eating disease gets you..

so i wa like ok...at this point jen was gettin tired but we ran into ash again, jen head out and ash stays with me.. so we head for dermatology where they tell me there are no appts and i have to go to hall uni and i explain and what the other lady told me and show the nice people my rash at which point they are like hold on ill go find a doctor...

so i get an appt have to go back to hall uni to pay and then back again to dermatology. this whole experience has been heavily marked by my trying to get my name spelled correctly and not knowing the word for insurance...but ash is cool to chill we get the shit filled out and my ass gets seen...

have to strip down to bra and panties in fronta not one but two docs but they are nice, so they tell me that its an allergic reaction for sure but they have some doubts as to what and suggested it might have been caused by an infection, im like wait i had an infection twice, a good ole caint breath viral infection of the lungs due to the combo of my respiratory ish and mad contamination so they was like yeah we ordered some tests and heres a prescription to make that horror go away...

so as you may have guessed i had to take some orders from the docs to the lab folks then back to hall uni to pay...headed home after the whole day of literally 7 trips back and forth...got me some meds and the rash is going away, the blood test stuff was fun cause they took like 6 test tubes and i was like hey dont i need that and all blurry cause i had to go first thing yestie without eating anything so between meds and blood and no food i was like wooooooo

then i came home and watched little women and went to sleep...

oh yeah and i kissed the brazilian on accident but thats another story and shall be told another day...

    glad you got some medicine. sounds not fun.

    and then, you tease us with mentioning brazilian-kissing...of course, I suppose it's better than if you told us all about brazillian kissing and then ended it with "...oh, and I have a flesh-eating disease, but more on that later."

    okay, so I wasn't in a foreign country where I didn't know the word for rash, but one summer when I was 12 I think, I got this horrible contact dermatitis...that's what they called things before flesh-eating rashes were invented and it was like a hundred mini jellyfishes had latched onto my neck and shoulder...all puffy and itchy and oozy....it was sooooo weird. And of course I got it at camp and then the next day had to go to a horse shoe in like 200 degree heat and where all these layers of clothes and ride my horse all day. The rash kept getting redder and puffier...so the paramedics gave me ice packs cuz no one knew what it was (including my nurse mama) - so I feel yo pain and I hope yer meds kick in and work fast! Good Luck!
