Re: MIL for thanksgiving OT

Cassy,

Could it be an allergy to something you eat or drink every time you go

there..but not something that you eat or drink normally at home. What about

bath

soap? Did you shower while there? Did you use a towel to dry your body

after showering? It could be the laundry detergent or fabric softener that she

uses. If you slept in her bed it could be allergy to something on the sheets

or bed clothing. Or even fleas or mites in the bedding..especially if the

dogs like to lay there or they normally sleep there when the bed is not in use.

The next thing is what about her dogs. could you be getting bit by fleas?

Some people are allergic to fleas.

Good luck...I hope you are able to figure it out. The last thing that comes

to mind is just stress of the visit. I know I get itchy when I am stressed

as well as when I am going into a flare. My rheummy says this is a histimine

response triggered by my RA.

Well, today went fairly well. I did come home early but I have a

strange question. I have had generalized itching since about two hours

after I got home from her house. This happened the last time I was

down there about two weeks ago. I did not pay too much attention to it

last time, took a warm shower and put on some lotion and mostly felt

better. It is happening again and I am itchy all over. I have a dog

so I don't think it has to do with her pets. She has two dogs, one

inside and one outside. She is clean so I am not sure what it is. I

am itching all over and I am scratching until it hurts. Any ideas?

Thank you for your response. I think it may be something to do with

the pets and stress. I only live 5 blocks from her so I do not sleep

there, but I don't look forward to the visits anymore since being dx

with RA. She has been so unsupportive that I don't even want to look

at her, truly. It may be anything but it only happens after I go to

her house with that severity. She has carpet, I don't, who knows.

She is clean but carpet in itself is hard to get as clean as without.

I thought I was going scratch till I bled last night. Yuc. Cassy

If there is a lot of stress when you go to her house, stress can cause hives
