The Towne House

So, so itchy

Patience started itching the other day, and once the rash had spread to her feet, legs, arms, stomach and FACE (oh God, not the face!), I took her to the doctor's yesterday.

We were told that she has poison ivy, but that the rash on her arms is due to "sun-sensitivity". HUH?  This kid has never gotten a rash from being in the sun.  Mild sunburns once in a while, but not itchy rashes.

Anyway, she's on oral steroids for 10 days, with plenty of anti-itch cream and Benedryl as needed.  Poor thing.
