Yucko

I have a mystery rash that is a mystery no longer. I've had this rash for 6 weeks and it's pretty yucko so I finally went to the dermatologist. She took one look at it and said "Oh yeah, it's lkjfiwjenfhisom!" Which is apparently a virus that teenagers or young adults get (yay, I'm still young!) in the Fall or Spring. Well, they think it's a virus. Anyway, the good news is that it clears up on its own without scarring. The bad news is that it takes 8-12 weeks to do so, and the doctor predicted I'd fall more on the 12 week spectrum. Nice. So as I wear my sleeveless dress I'm going to look a bit like a leper. Oh well.

And a warning: no blogging for a week. Do not panic.

It's not contagious to blog visitors is it?

You know Shelby, your little niece gets very similar rashes on her legs. Almost looks like ringworm.

She also has really bad seborreah on her scalp.

What does your rash look like????

Dear Shelby, I wish you to be healthy so soon as possible..Hier in Germany i know one very very super gut germatologist. If somebody visit him, he says: "No panik, all is great, it is all OK, it will be worse, becourse each illness need the deep point... but then it will be better and better ....no panik, all is great......
(I wish me such kind of Dok. for other body parts...)
