Today, I got up, showered, got dressed, and went to work. As I was driving in, I felt my face getting hotter. And hotter. By the time I got to the car park, my face felt really red, and as I peered into the car mirror, I looked pretty flushed too.
By the time I walked to the office, my arms and back and started to feel warm and itchy. When I walked in, only one other person was in the office (it was 7:30) and she saw the red and asked if I was okay. At this stage I was burning so I went and washed my face, But even that was not enough, so I hopped in the shower at work in order to try and wash off whatever I had got on my skin that it was reacting too. No joy.
Finally at 8am, after about a hour of wanting to rip my skin off, I went to a local doctor and they gave me a shot of antihistamine in the butt. The plus to this was about 20 min later, my skin felt better, the downside was that I now had a sore butt, and I was getting really woozy.
So I walked back to walk and then sat at my desk trying to recover enough to drive home. People at work were sooo lovely as I sat there in my dizzy state. Finally after lunch I had my head together enough to get home and then I just slept till now.
I have no idea what caused the reaction, I didn't do anything different this morning, but boy, what ever I did do, I don't want to do it again!!!
