It's been a rough week..

Well I have finally emerged from the land of the sick.  I got the nasty cold bug last Friday, and was on the couch until Wednesday, feeling totally miserable.  I finally got some cough syrup and antibiotics out of the doctor on Tuesday, and those really helped.  THEN, on Wednesday I developed a really random rash.  It came on really suddenly, and was all over my neck and arms.  I  immediately called the doctor, and he said to stop taking the antibiotics.  The rash then totally disappeared within an hour.  Random.  The same exact thing happened Thursday, right around the same time of day, except it spread and was all over my body.  But again, it went away.  It came Friday two separate times, but not quite as severely as before.  I thought everything was getting better, but NO.  Saturday morning I had the worst rash of my entire life.  I was literally one HUGE hive.  I had so many hives that I couldn't even see individual ones, they all blended together.  I started to feel light-headed and dizzy, so I called and made my dad come over and sit with me (Grant was at work).  I thought I was going to go out of my mind.  My entire body was itching and hot and red.  I wanted to skin myself alive.  So, I took a Benadryl, passed out on the couch, and when I woke up, it was gone.  I've only had a few hives since then, so again, I'm hoping the worst has passed.  We'll see....  I go to the OB today to see if they have any ideas as to what is going on with me.  Less than 5 weeks until this little guy arrives!  I am ready for him to come and my body to get back to normal (somewhat!).
