Holy crap I’m allergic to WHAT?
Apparently I’m allergic to Aloe Vera straight from the plant. I had used it, but not lately. Wednesday night, I covered my face in it and coconut oil (which I have used lately.) I woke up looking like a cabbage patch doll.
I iced my eyes open, drove to “fake chemo” (herceptin), got lots of sympathy, and a prescription for steroids from the on-call oncologist. He practically rolled his eyes at me, and told me not to put ANYTHING ELSE on my skin….
My face got all crusty and I’ve spent three days with a wet washcloth on my face. It’s sort of fascinating to watch the skin heal.
MY FACE HURTS.
This is your cue to say “yeah? well it’s killin’ me…”
