So I had a big rash on my side...

The good news is you caught it early.

But yeah it hurts like hell from what I've seen. My mom almost died from it.

And don't be surprised if the antibiotics make you sickish too. Dioxocyclene or however it's spelt is brutal.

Edit- I should probably clarify my mom was in the hospital for a long long time and for whatever reason they didn't test her for it, so it went untreated forever. You aren't in danger of dying or anything. ^^;; I mean, usually it's a take your medicine and you're done type thing. All doctors in my area just happen to be idiots. XD

:sad: Man, that sucks. Hopefully you'll be okay.

Last time I had antibiotics was when I had pneumonia. That really sucked...

Slightly OT: A guy in my class did his research paper on the Russian Spetsnaz (special forces) hand to hand fighting techniques, which the Soviets developed from a number of differen wrestling styles. For his presentation, he and his buddy laid a fighting mat down in the lecture hall and showed off some moves they had been working on from a book. It was :awesome:

Tried to warn you. ^^;;

No matter how much it sucks though it's important you take it all. We (AE) can be your support group. <3

Ah, that makes sense.

It was a really weird situation when my mom got lyme disease, because just a couple months before I was the one in the hospital who had to get a tick removed from my back. (For whatever reason it buried under my skin, and I had to get the lyme test.) Weird thing is that I pretty much hate the outdoors and this was back when I lived in town. We think it must have gotten inside from the dog...

Weirder thing is I didn't have it, then my mom ended up getting it.... But yeah...

Anyways, are you feeling any better?

Actually yeah, I didn't sweat that much last night only lost a lb and got a good night sleep. Also yesterday I was feeling good enough to hang out with my friends. The worst part is the sore neck and body aches now, the anti biotics finally seem to be taking effect.
