Oh crap, I'm starting to get welts on my arm. Last time this happened I spent a week in hospital with a cytokine storm and apparently had a one in twenty chance of carking it. Off to get some antihistamines or corticosteroids...

Bugger, pharmacy is closed. Anyway, had a good shower after my cursory wash earlier and put disinfectant on it. Last time it ended up as sepsis, so I guess the goal here is to avoid getting too itchy.
Hmm, it's getting itchy. Also some around my waist too, which is how the whole cytokine storm thing started. I'll have to find a "pharmacie de garde" tomorrow.
Got me some antihistamines, yay!
Must not scratch. Must not scratch. Omm...
After four hours sleep and three double espressos I was ready to somewhat skittishly seize the day. Now I'd rather nap.

@davep bah, quelle merde.

Wishing you well.

@davep Looks like shingles to me.
@VickForcella No, it's a reaction to either insects or the sap of plants. Same thing happened a couple of years back and it got really bad. Ended up seeing an "allergologue" once I got better, but they didn't find anything.
@davep
Hope you can get some relief soon! Sounds awful.
@davep oof, hope it won't get serious! 🙏
@davep How did it go so far? Dod it calm down a bit? +hopes+
@ottermiemuis It's kind of extended a bit, but doesn't look like it's going to turn an angry red. So far, at least.
