Today I spent my evening in the emergency room and am now drugged out of my shoes... painkillers, antihistamines, and antibiotics... woo hoo.

Had an allergic reaction to a bug bite... (can I tell you how much I hate mosquitoes ?)... and my left forearm looked like I had been eating cans of spinach.

Having been here before I did not delay getting my ass into emergency as the Lymphadenitis can cause complications like Sepsis which can lead to complications like... death.

They said I caught it early enough and that I would not have to be plugged into an IV for the next week unless I don't respond to the oral antibiotics and I get to stay home and recuperate and actually feel pretty fine.
