Why don't we call a truce and jab one of those needles in my eye, please?

Um, can I get a free pass?
Please?
My week just can't get any shittier.
Co-pays for the 13 steroid lotions prescribed
for unexplainable itchy arms ....... $130
Zyrtec, Allegra double dose, Nasal sprays
and special skin cleanser ....... $123.22
Learning that while I'm allergic to 43/58 allergens,
RED WINE IS STILL A-OK! ........ Priceless!!




Ouch.

AAACK! I remember having that test done when I was a kid - allergy shots every week for 3 years.

It sucked - BIG TIME! good luck with that.

yeah ... if I have allergies, I don't know it, don't want to know it, and don't care. I'll sniffle, sneeze, itch, contract, expand, WHATEVS!!! As long as I don't have to be stuck with 60 different needles.

I hope the rest of the week is bettah for ya!

blessings!

wow! 48/60...isn't that like 80%. Without even studying for anything. Very impressive.

on a lighter note, looks like you are ready for acupuncture. I believe they put less needles in you than that and it is supposed to make you feel better. Right now- I'd try anything.

Maybe they can dip the needles in red wine before they do it. Either that or just stay drunk all the time.

Ouch indeed! I had one of those done several years ago, and they also tested like 30 some odd things on my forearms. I walked around for 2 weeks trying to hide my forearms in the summer because I seriously looked like some kind of junkie with really bad track marks. And all this to discover I was only allergic to one thing...RAGWEED!! Damn doctor and his boredom!

At least you now have a valid reason for all that red wine you're going to be drinking!
