    Hi Weller, that's no good, we need pics!
    Great to see you whooshing through!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Having a really miserable few days, need to vent as I am about to cry! Its nothing serious and I don't know what im getting so worked up about but I just feel so gross :( I noticed some itchy red spots (looked like cigarette burns) on my shoulders and back on Sunday and they just kept on coming from no where, so i I went to the pharmacy and he said it looked like mosqito bites (i never react to them so I thought this was doubtful, but i followed his advise anyway) so he gave me some anti histamine (sp?) cream to put on them. So I kept putting the cream on, but they were still so itchy and were getting bigger. I went out for coffee last night and I was so uncomfortable so I went to a different pharmacy and showed the guy (sort of trainee dr) in the pharmacy and he looked at it and wouldn't give me anything as he said it looked like a fungal infection and I needed to go to the hospital to see a specialist (no such thing as a GP here!) The thought turned my stomach and I felt so sick (i am so sqeamish with skin diseases). So i came home and did a bit of googling and by the looks of things, symptoms and pictures i worked out it was probably ring worm, so I called my dad (he is a paramedic) via skype and he told me what I needed. So off I trot back to the pharmcy with a list of drugs I need. He gave me 2 types of tablets and some cammomile lotion. I took the first tablet 16 hours ago, so need to give it a bit more time before I start expecting results I think. Applying the cammomile lotion every hour or so to stop the itching. I just feel so horrible. There are a few coming up on my face as well that started yesterday, they are on my back, upper arms, boobs and legs, and its really difficult to cover them up as its still quite hot here. I should be going out tonight but I don't think I want to. This is when I really miss the UK. Having easily accessible trustworthy advice.
    :cry:


    Has anyone else had experience of this?

    Sorry to see your car pics Linda. Hope a new tyre is not too dear.

    Buffy - hope you feel more cheery soon. Have you got anything fun coming up to cheer you up?

    katie, i'd say get yourself to a hospital, if this rash is spreading quickly, it needs seeing to.
