Nicole Forsi is skulking around 43 things

Get rid of my hives (read all 2 entries…)
Am I going to have to avoid Hawaii for the rest of my life???

Came back from vacation on the Big Island, and 36 hours later broke out in hives. Weird thing is that it happened 7 years ago—the last time I went to the Big Island. Same MO. Day or so back from vacation and I’m all itchy.

But it’s been a MONTH!

Last time, a couple a days and over the counter Benedryl and I was good. I’m taking four different medications this time (and I don’t like taking ANY medicine!) I missed a dose on Wednesday morning, and by that evening I was covered again in red spots.

I’m on the “step-down” phase of the steroid for the second time. When I got under 15mg last time I broke out, so I went back up to 20mg for a couple of days. Just took the first of a few days of 10mg, and I’m crossing my fingers.

Anybody else out there have stories? Any alternate treatment?

Ain’t nothing wrong with flying in one of them. I’d do it in a heart beat.

If your a good flyer, other than maybe the possibility of maybe flying with your children or the stress of being the organizer of the trip, like Shane may forget his suitcase, not pack his underwear, forgets what day and time you are traveling so it’s all on you to get the whole family to Wally World or just to Hawaii to reminisce about Don Ho and Tiny Bubbles, then that may be ruled out. You are not solely the only one who knows the who, what’s, where’s and when’s of your family vacation are you?

It’s not one of them Freudian it’s all about your parents and your twisted but forgotten childhood traumas is it? Or is it the stress from thought of telling the story to Hal and I?.......................

Aw, heck, who am I kidding, trying to solve this like on them TV shows! CSI Norm or Hawaii Norm-O. Or maybe QUINCY M.E.!
