So now I'm really freaking out. I took a shitload of antihistamines and the hives subsided and I felt a little bit better last night. Until three a.m. when I was woken by more itching and a return of the hives. I'd felt off all day yesterday with some dizziness and generally not feeling well and such, that was back too. Except now my lips have randomly gone numb, my throat was a bit tight and sore with some trouble swallowing, and the bottom of my feet hurt (wtf feet?!?!?). I panicked and woke poor
vagabondage, who calmed me down enough to take inventory that, yes, I am still breathing fine, no it wasn't getting worse as time went on, and once I was actually talking to another human being, though it appears freaky enough that I definitely need to see a doctor first thing in the morning, but not immediately life threatening. Scared the ever living shit out of me, though, and I'm now sitting here wide awake, itching, wondering what in the hell is wrong with me. Allergic reaction is the obvious guess, but I sincerely have not eaten anything new, used any sort of deterent or soap product that is new, nothing has changed. And now I'm whining to the internet because I can't sleep and my inner hypochondriac is insisting that this spells DOOM or something. I don't know. I swear if this is yet another way in which my body has decided to express crazy I am going to be so pissed off
