Also, some venting in there.
I'll cut straight to it. Since October of last year, I've had some crazy shit going on with my body. It started with what felt like growing pains in my left arm. Sometimes in the shoulder, sometimes the elbow, and even the wrist. Sometimes it was so painful I couldn't sleep on it. Within a month of developing that, I began to get cankor sores in my mouth. They'd come and go rather quickly. Some tongue bleeding with circular red patches too. My throat also hurt something wicked. Kept me up at night as well. Go to doc, get diagnosed with tendonitis. Nothing to say about my throat. That's cool.
By February, the pain in my arm and mouth just... goes away. Didn't really do much to initiate that. Felt like there wasn't much to do. Starting around mid April, I develop this circular rash on right hand, above lip, and around both eyes. The rash on hand itches like mad sometimes. Around my eyes was a little itchy and above my lips, not at all. It looks like lizard skin. My skin around my eyes looked particularly like separated, dry scales. My eyes healed in about two weeks. It's almost three months now. My hand still flares up in the original area where it started, with smaller flare ups. Above my lip begins to look dry, and get an irritated shade of red. The only thing that makes it go away is steroid ointments.
Here's the biggest doozy. Around Mid May, my stomach pretty much turned on me. It started out as nausea then morphed into intense pain. Doesn't matter what I ate or didn't eat. I also changed a lot of products thinking it was an allergic reaction. It seems obvious this is systemic. Anyway, the pain was excruciating. Sometimes eating a small bite of something triggers it. Took a 14 day course of nexium, a 2 week course of 20mg omeprazole twice a day,then upped it to 40mg. This is my fourth day on antibiotics for a UTI that fucking came out of no where.
