so….my life is always interesting when it comes to seeing the dr.  I went to my primary care doctors office today because I’ve had a rash for a while and it’s getting worse.  I was mainly concerned that it was scabies since the dr thought that’s what Caleb had, but we werent convinced.  The worse my rash got the more concerned I got, and it is sooo itchy.  So I didnt see my favorite dr because they were fitting me in, but after the dr looked at me she said I’ll be back and about 10 minutes later came back w/ a doctor I’ve never met and a book of different rashes.   The other dr looks me over says it could be exzema, asks me to take off my glasses and look at my eyes.  Says something about I have a marker, a line under my eyes or something, that is a sign that I’d be prone to exzema.   Funny that I’ve never heard this before, and was impressed.   As a Kid I had horrible scarring exzema that caused me to be the brunt of many jokes and comments by strangers, especially in the summer time when it was so noticeable.   My mom acts like it wasnt that big a deal but I guess since I was the who’s body looked so bad to her it wasnt that bad but to me it really affected my view of myself becuase how bad it was and how I was treated becuase of it.  but that’s another topic…..anyway… there are “suspicious” areas that are not exzema( I have a feeling I am spelling that wrong) and they didnt want to treat me w/ too much becuase of the pregnancy, gee thanks!   So I got a referral to the dermatologist whom they dont think will be able to get me in anytime soon.    I’m just glad it’s not scabies but now because my drs, yeah 2 of them, were baffled I’m more concerned.  how’d I get so lucky to have another set of mysterious symptoms?  I guess my life will never be dull.    fun times….as the day goes on the more lethargic my baby Bo gets, and he’s not drinking anymore.   at least tomorrow no one has to go to the dr, unless of course bo gets worse….
