Tomar & EE22, Congrat's on the 6 month mark!
TP2, Sounds like chx pox.

But only time will tell. Chx pox like to start on torso / hot spots. Under arms, top of thigh, etc.. . They like warmth. The start out as red spots > then develop the wheel in the middle. And continue to change to the ball in the middle till dry out. Not sure of meds to decrease them. Even with the vaccine, you can still get a case, but that is should be milder. As for treatment, the old calamine lotion is still used, you want to keep them from scratching, so as not to infect anything. push fluids, rest, and quarrantine. Some people like to use bendryl type meds, helps with itching, but up to your md. Not sure if it really helps much with the chx pox itching. Good luck and keep watching the spots. The 2 big complications: infection of a scabbed area, or dehydration from them in the throat [internal].
Tomar, I am embarrassed, still coughing.

But that is the least of my problems right now. Spent all week, with abdominal pain & back pain > went to md yesterday, Diverticulitis.

At least nothing ruptured. So home with pain now & on strong antibiotics. Supposed to see md tommorrow or wed & off work, till the meds start working.

This is no way to start the new year, Been sick since before thanksgiving. Well, things can only get better.

I was too embarrassed to write about it, >> I am even tired with my recent medical problems. I had not called into work for over 2 years[I didn't call in with foot injury > I could of worked with boot, but they refused for OSHA reasons] and been off more in the last 2 months.
Oh well, maybe AP rates will come out and I can make a decision to stay or change our ressies. Something else to think about.
