Ok long story short....Friday my finger started swelling. Thought it was a bite or something. Then my hands and my feet and my left knee started to look a little puffy. And I was itchy. Took some Benadryl and went to sleep. Woke up Saturday morning and my hands and feet and knee were huge balloons. My throat felt a little tight too. I drove myself to the ER and wound up there all day. I got an IV of Benadryl and a steroid and the swelling never went down. They even called a rheumatologist down because they thought I might have rheumatoid arthritis. Looks like I don't (thank the LORD!). I went home still puffy. Yesterday I was much better. Today I woke up and my lips and eyes were swollen. I felt ok though.
Fast forward to Mommy & Me and all of a sudden my throat started to feel tight. Considering how swollen my hands had been on Saturday I got scared. My uncle drove me to the ER where I got a shot of Benadryl. I felt better almost immediately. I felt pretty silly for going to the ER for a medicine I had at home but I guess you can't be too cautious when it comes to a possible allergic reaction.
I have no clue what the problem is. Allergy? They don't know. Boo.
Tomorrow I go to the Sports Medicine Foot doctor.
When it rains it pours, right??
