Itsy bitsy itchy....

My latest pastime is showering under maximum hot water.

Not exactly glamorous, I know. But it’s the only thing that really soothes my itchy skin right now. My hands and legs have been itching for almost a month already. No idea why.

Went to the doctor and he said it might be emotional stress. First time hearing that stress can show up like this on the skin. Sigh. The medication and cream he gave didn’t really help much either.

So now I’ve switched to Chinese medication and cream. Aih. I walk out of the bathroom smelling like strawberries… and five minutes later, I smell like some herbal plant. Transformation complete.

What to do… no choice. I just want this irritation gone. It’s already been a month and I definitely don’t want it getting worse, or worse still, spreading to my face. That one I cannot accept.

Still have no idea what triggered it in the first place. So strange.

And the worst part… it itches like crazy, but I have to stop myself from scratching.

Super torture. Seriously.
