Rob's disgusting skin problem
OK freinds, I was pretty sure I wasn't going to post anymore at the risk of sounding like a crybaby. I also didn't want anyone to be left on pins and needles like a cliffhanger. I will get to the needles in a second... I should just rename this thread "Rob's disgusting skin problem" just so no one looking for information on any bumpy conditions regarding the course doesn't come across this and say "what the f...?"
My wife was away for a couple of days on a business trip and got home late last night and this morning saw my leg and was freaked out. She was like you have got to get to a dermotologist like now. I was thinking wow I wasn't expecting that from her. SO I just got back and although doc does not think it is PI as it is fairly localized, she did not rule out that it could be some kind of insect whether or not chiggers and for whatever reason my body is reacting to it. Then she took out a needle and injected cordisone directly into all of the spots, there are a lot now, and said I should feel better by tonight. That would be good because I hardly slept last night. She said if it still persists in a day or so she'll put me on Prednisone which is a steroid but will not make me any faster according to her. So the score is the following: Lots of deep red raised spots that now contain pinholes in them so they bother me in a different kind of way now. Change is good?
