I was almost hospitalized today
I have pneumonia in one lung and an allergic reaction to the anti-biotic. A red rash was all over my legs, arms and face.

:cry: :puke:

13. Get some rest
What was the anti-biotic? Was it a sulfa drug? I had an adverse reaction to sulfa several years ago. It taught me how powerful and potentially dangerous antibiotics can be.

14. Biaxin (Clarithromycin)
I was taking it in pill form 13 days before I got the reaction.

15. Sending healing thoughts!
You're the 2nd person this week who had a bad allergic reaction. I hope you're not too itchy.

16. The itching wasn't the problem.
Thinking that it'd take six months for it to clear up instead of the same day? That was the problem. It's cleared up but it's the kind of allergic reaction that when it goes away, it shows up in another spot and looks just as bad as the last place it was in.
