Limbo check in
G'morning people!
Well I had to stop wearing my flector patches because the spot where I put em broke out in a rash. But it's a story about good, story about bad.
See, I looked at the paper with the side effects... remember I was whining about all those flares, achey, flu-like? Well, that's one of the side effects, not just me.
All through June I felt sick and thought I was having fibro flares when it was just the med.
So bad news, I'm having a reaction.
But good news, I'm not having fibro.
Stopped the patch and the arthotech and while the pain is back at least I'm not sick. Gotta call the doc and update him and see if he has another idea what to do med-wise.
It seemed like I didn't have a problem with the patch until I got out in the sun a lot, started swimming and using sun block. So I wonder if the adhesive reacted to one or more of those things. I may be able to use them again this fall.
I've never had a reaction to anything before, skin wise, so this is all new to me.
I've never had any kind of rash.
Anyhoo, supposed to be nice out today. I'll be out cleaning the pool and patio and cranking up some tunes. Beer and stuff is already on ice and snacks are ready to go, so come on out, will ya? BYOPN (bring your own pool noodles LOL)
