anyone else ever have an allergic reaction like this?
 

so, i get home from the social distortion concert with what looks like a few bug bites on my right arm...little spider bites...but they are not..lol

i wake up tuesday morning with this

http://www.djjace.net/tmp/001.jpg

i went to the emergency room tuesday night and they gave me an iv with benedryl and some steroids, and it seemed to subside....until this morning

i woke up with it worse than ever......i started my prescriptions they gave me (steroids and zyrtec) and it is gone pretty much now

but FUCK, that shit sucked....over 24 hours of total itching all over my body...i thought i had some disease or something...i had never had an allergic reaction to anything before...much less my body covered 100% in what you see in the pic

glad it's over though, and sorry to those that called or tried to get ahold of me....i wasn't up for any phone, email or icq...i was ithcing too damn bad!

I used to work with a guy who had something similar happen to him. He was never able to figure out what the cause was but it was gone in like 2 days.

yeah, the doctors said it is really hard to tell even with a scracth test what the exact cause is...

DAMN!
Glad you're feeling better, dude, that looks like some shit to go through.
My daughter is highly allergic to mosquitos (another reason we're moving out of Fl, lol) and she gets knots under any bite she gets, and it swells and gets blood red with an ulcerated center, gives her a fever and even respitory problems. Very scary when it's on your infant.:(

Ha ha- you're allergic to Mike Ness!!!

I just saw them a few times in FL- are you talking about the Atlanta show?

did you do anything different that you can remember? change detergent, eat something new, or drink something new? seems like a topical or food allergy reaction.

yeah, was a great show...so much fucking energy

holy shit :uhoh :uhoh

that might be herpes or HIV

well, just to be on the safe side i just went out today and bought all new detergent and fabric softener

rofl....

hope that you are ok now and feel better, allergic sucks, I had something similar over all my hands and neck, but it was reaction on the medicine.....,know how you felt....:)

those hives can be from nearly anything... but usually it's from stress.... I know it's happened to me a few times, never to your extent but the 3 or 4 times it's happened to me I coudl relate it to stress. Even though I didn't feel stressed I knew I was in some stressful situations.. ie the day of my wedding... the weekend I was going to propose to my wife... hell on that one I even had a heart condition even went to the doctor.... benedryl will work but it'll make you one sleepy mother fucker!

holy crap :helpme

i can honestly say i have almost no stress in my life....

but who knows...i amon allergy medicine now, so all should be good from now on

my mom started developing allergies when she hit about 30 too, which I do on friday, so I guess it is just my time...LOL

Yeah I have had those.

Their called Chicken Pox

Sorry...that's not even close to Chicken Pox.

Geeze, Jace!!

New soap? Shampoo? Detergent? Fabric softener? Sheets? Clothes? Furniture?

If you can't figure out anything you've done differently, you might want to go as far as getting your water tested (there's a state agency that does it for free/low cost, but I can't remember....google).

That looks rough :(

damn, that must be very itchy

id probably tied my hands only not to scratch it :(

dude you must have had or seen the most insane case of chicken pox ever...cause this was about 10x worse....imagine what you see on my side on EVERY INCH of my body...from the palms of my hands to the bottoms of my feet

we changed all that shit out...i did figure out though that I bought some new detergent last week..ALL....but I am not sure if I used it yet...

but there was a sheet I was sleeping under that was causing a lot of irritation...and that sheet is now being washed, along with every other piece of clothing and bedding we have in the house


lots of washing going on right now...i just wish my dryer worked as fast as my washer...

it sucked...the itching was so bad that when I did itch it I did avery light itch,almost a smooth rubbing....but to tell you the truth, it felt so good to itch it i couldn't help

the ithching was so bad at one point i almost threw up

I had chicken pox when I was 24. I was delusional, and couldn't sleep for 3 or 4 days.

It looked like that.

That place, the Tabernacle, sounds like a pretty cool place for shows. I don't like any of the places they played in my state this time around. Here's a pic from Orlando HOB:

It's shitty- taken from my camera phone.

Get some of the Aveeno oatmeal anit-itch bath stuff and soak in the tub :) Unless it's the water causing the problem of course - then that would be a bad idea. :winkwink:

yeah, the tabernacle is a pretty nice place, we are going to see bad religion next week there too

it has two balconies and fits about 2000 people

and the staff there is very cool, they don't hire asshole meat heads

you had some wierd ass chicken pox then.....cause my pox were huge...not tiny like what I had this past week

i still have scars from my chicken pox that are almost 1/4 inch wide

did the doctor administered any allergy shots to prevent re-occurance? sure you don't want to experience it all over again

:thumbsup

between the benadryl anti itch cream, the zyrtec and the steroids I am doin all right now....there are a few little patches here and there, but most of it cleared up while I slept all day today....LOL

i was all worried that I would have this shit on friday for my birthday....

yeah, he shot me full of benadryl....plus I am on this super steroid dose pack for 7 days....and that is about 21 pills...had to take 6 of them today already

:1orglaugh :helpme

yeah I had them when I was 19 or 20.... I cried myself to sleep at night, I even shit my bed I was so sick.... I had them on every inch of my body except my dick and my balls... but I had them in my mouth, on my gums, in between my fingers, the bottom of my feet.... I wanted to die...

did you happen to take any advil by any chance that day? My wife just found out she was allergic to ibuprofin and she swelled up and had to go to the emergency to get shots of benedryl, adrenaline and a muscle relaxer to help her out.... but it's weird because she can take it and it won't happen and sometimes it does... just has to be the right circumstances... something else to think about!

Yo...i'm sorry you had to go through that...looks like it sucked...but please next time you post a pick suck in the gut..for christ sake............:1orglaugh

i take those on a regular basis,and have for quite some time....i know it wasn't that

shit, it ain't that bad...plus this ain't a thread about me trying to get modeling gigs, now is it?

i am 5'10" 185lbs.....pretty damn average actually

Have you shot a porno lately with Laura Roxxx? If so, I may know what it is.

yeah so has my wife too... just within a day it happened to her... same thing could happen to you too!

Sue the people of the event.


:2 cents:

EEEEEWWWWWW...you got me all creeped out there....that DOES look like her ass shot
