Funny old world

I caught a cold 2 weeks ago, it developed into a chest infection and 3 days ago I was put on a course of antibiotics (Amoxicillin).  Today I have welts and hives the size of 50p pieces and the doc tells me I am allergic to penicillin.  41 yrs old next week and I am now allergic to penicillin??  wtf????   I thought you were born with these things.  You learn something every day.</p>

I am falling apart. FACT.</p>

 

Apparently allergies can develop at any time in life.
Ar lass used to love fish but then developed an allergic reaction to it when she was pregnant and now can't eat it.

 

weird tho innit?  What happened to change me from a penicillin tolerant to a penicillin allergic person?  Life, sheesh ....

 

think yourself lucky it's only hives, my fella blacked out and was on his way off the planet - always been allergic but Doc forgot to ask him before he gave him the tablets!

 

but more importantly....

are you feeling any better?

 

shortly after I got married and cme out from under my mothers wing I discovered I was allergic to

cooking, housework and DIY. Been looking for a cure ever since.

 

there's only one known cure for cooking and housework

and that's to do both 3x daily.

 

tried that once

but it laid me up on the settee for 5 years

 

RE: but more importantly....

bit better thanks, but I'm not letting on ;-)  Hope you are well.
