So, I foolishly applied the lotion, basically, ALL over my body. I did this in the hopes that it would work like magic or something...
I couldn't have been MORE wrong! I apparently am allergic, yes I said allergic, to this lotion and have freaking have RASH upon DRY SKIN upon ALLERGIC REACTION. It's all too wonderful.
I called my dermatologist in a panic and was able to see her today. We made a plan of action. I'm starting Prednazone on Monday for 2 weeks with use of a topical steroid. That should make what I have go away, if not fully it will make me MUCH more comfortable. We are going to meet again at the end of those two weeks and go from there.
She didn't really want to do prednazone, just because it's more going to mask the symptoms rather than solve the problem. I basically pleaded with her to let me take it just to make life worth living. I'm being a bit dramatic, but lets get serious folks, I've now been itching for ONE YEAR. I'm TOTALLY DONE!
I took Bradley in this morning also for his 4 month, can you believe he's already 4 months...and he, much to my surprise, has turned into a little guy. He only weighed 13.6 lbs. That put him into the 22%. I guess it's rice cereal here on out boy, hope you like it!
His head is flat, but not a symmetrical, which is good. She said that I may want to see a specialist about that if he ever wants to have a "good" shaped head, in case he ever wants to shave his head or anything. I at first thought no, that it wasn't that big of a deal but then I thought about Travis and I'm thinking that seeing that specialist might not be a bad idea..haha
Hi Katie! I love your blog! Its so cute! Funny thing is that I almost chose this background! I was in between this one and the one I picked. I am so glad that you are bloging again so I can see all that is going on with you guys. I can't believe how big Brad is! We miss you.... Give Brad and Audrey a big kiss from me! Love ya......
ReplyDeleteYou should talk to Kellie. Her baby has a flat head and she has always been concerned but her doctor kept telling her not to worry about it. Now he is 9 months old and she has to take drastic measures to correct it. She said if they did something earlier that therapy could have done the trick.
ReplyDeleteo katie you poor thing ha ha ha you need a skin transplant... and I just laughed out loud at the "good" shaped head shaped situation... ha ha ha
ReplyDeleteooops I wrote shaped twice lol
ReplyDeleteKaydee! I can not believe you are still having problems with your skin! I am so sorry!!! I really hope your Dr is able to help you figure out what is going on and how to fix it. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteHey there's nothing wrong with being on the small side, we small children grow up to be pretty great people!
