I've got swollen lips, a swollen patch of skin over my right eyebrow (didn't bump it, it just swelled up on its own), and large itchy patches of skin on my body (back, neck, shoulders, thighs, knees).

Allergic reaction? I've been inside for the past few days so I haven't come in contact with any plants, but could it be an insect bite or something?

scabies?

hydrocortisone and/or benadryl

6/9/2006 10:20:14 AM

Cortisone

Food allergies?.....benadryl

6/9/2006 10:46:01 AM

Allergic reaction. My old roommate used to get it quite often for no reason at all.

sounds like something allergic
take some benadryl if you have some.

my ex used to react to Aleve like that

Ok, I got off the horn with my mom and have seen on the internet where Zantac 75 will cause side effects similar to what I've got (and I'm starting to get some of the more serious ones - fuzzy vision - that really bothers me because I'm sensitive about my vision). I stopped taking it last night so I hope that makes a difference.

Hey, and thanks for the minimized flaming!

6/9/2006 11:39:53 AM

psoriasis?

6/9/2006 11:50:21 AM

Dad doesn't like Tony, mom likes to comes over to our place for dinners and holidays.

6/9/2006 11:54:12 AM

well that makes sense since tony is probably older than your dad

6/9/2006 12:02:38 PM

why would anyone have a problem with a 50 year old man dating their 20 year old daughter?

6/9/2006 12:16:50 PM

My dad's 61, Tony's 57.

6/9/2006 1:00:52 PM

thats so disgusting

but i hope it works out for you

6/9/2006 1:34:04 PM

so do you dont see/talk to your dad?

is that because of tony or was shit going on beforehand?

6/9/2006 3:35:51 PM

Both, but we talk every once in a while for very short periods of time.

6/9/2006 4:22:04 PM

So along with him being your b/f, he is also a father figure that you can talk too? Did Tony and your dad go to the same HS?
