Allergy update 'cos I know you're dying to know

I thought I would update you lovely ladies on that fun allergic reaction I had to my BC pill. Obviously, I stopped taking it. I had seen a physicians assitant last Monday (my reg doc doesn't work Mondays) and she gave me something for the itch. Nothing else and didn't make any suggestions, even though I was dying. My skin was super itchy and dry. My eyes looked all red and like I had been in a fight with Mike Tyson. My ears were swollen, red, and flaky. She had me come back on Thursday. This time my doctor was there and she brought him in to consult, and they prescribed me prednisone. I look normal now! My skin is still a little dry, but the funny thing is, my skin has never been clearer! Weird, right?

Anyway. Thought you all would like an update Big Smile

Re: Allergy update 'cos I know you're dying to know

  • Glad you are back to normal...are they going to try to do something else for the bc?
    "Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly"
  • Glad you're doing better! Did they give you any sort of info or reason why the BC made you break out in a rash? Are they going to give you another type of BC?

  • At least they gave you better medicine this time!! And I have heard of it clearing skin up like that before it's a nice surprise sometimes. I also want to know about new BC or what they decided.
  • I knew they should have given you that in the first place! Glad you're doing much better :)
