In pork I trust
Oh I've been to my doctor like 7 times because of this over the last 5 weeks or so.
I've been using prescription topical steroid cremes on it as well as some sort of a pill that messes with your immune system.. They only gave me 3 pills, it's gotta be strong stuff.
Nothing has been working. Until pretty much today, when the rash on my right hand side started to clear. So there's hope I took the day off work today and managed to get an appointment @ a dermatologists' - I was panicking pretty much - the rash was worse when I woke up and I started calling all dermatologists in the city, trying to get in.. I have been waiting to see one, but it was taking too long, and the way things were going they weren't going to schedule an appt for me until weeks from now.. So I took things in my own hands, found a dermatologists' assistant (secretary?) who listened to my pleas for help and said they'd take me in if I showed up with a referral.. so I went to my doctor to get one.. and yep.. tomorrow they'll look at my crazy rash and let me know what the hell is going on. (Yeah, I had to go to my doctor, apparently they couldn't just fax the stuff over)
My doctor seems to think that there is no way, but I think this whole thing might have been caused by my new low-carb diet. It's either all the eggs I've been eating (28 a week at least, 4 a breakfast) or the state of ketosis your body goes in when you consume less than 20g of carbs for a couple days. I searched the keto subreddit and there were a bunch of people asking if anyone's had a rash under this diet.. while at the same time saying that their doctors told them that the rash wasn't caused by a diet - and that they didn't know what caused it.
So there's def. something weird going on.. but I'm def going to Peru. I'm cutting out all eggs for now and starting to eat carbs again (I'm officially down to 180 pounds (from 205) so it's a good a time as any)... plus I got a new tube of creme (yeah yeah, I can't use it too much cause it's strong stuff), so I'm doublecreaming it tonight (man that sounds wrong) and hoping htat by the time I wake up the rash has cleared up even more.
I'm a bit out of it, but I'm feeling good.
I ordered a new camera too! THis baby right here:
Paying $76 to have it delivered to me as fast as possible so that I get it in time
