blood

since the start of summer, i have given more than 20 vials of blood in a vain (get it?) attempt to find out why i break out in hives all of the time and my lips swell to an obscene, Angelina Jolie-likeness.

i still have no diagnosis. and i am 6 vials of blood shorter today.

need answer soon. not sure which is worse. giving blood or constantly itching like i have some form of lice lurking on my skin.

You are allergic to the current administration?

Are you keeping a food/substance log?

Are you allergic to vodka?!?!?!

my middle name is trouble. my last name is drama. said...

um...maybe i am allergic to republicans. :-)

did the log for months ... it doesn't look like it's food ... i'm allergic to everything outside for sure ... but the meds should be taking care of it, but they're not. i've been tested for all kinds of auto-immune diseases ... everything is negative ... so now she's going after the way my blood reacts to any kind of allergen ... not sure how to explain it, but if the tests they're running this week are positive, i have something very rare. :-(

btw - liquor was one of my first inquiries ... i'm okay there ... thank goodness ... but if i wasn't ... maybe i would have qualified for medicinal pot?
