sorry guys...


since I got a terrible skin rash last weekend from a medication I was taking as a sinusitis treatment...it was impossible to remain in front of my Mac
Every square inch of my skin itching& burning ...with a lot of tiny blisters. I was scared because never had that problem before...if I was taking medication or a different food.
So I went to see a friend dematologyst this morning and I hope her treatment works quickly... you know...I have a lot of new cut files to be finished.
Have a blessed week,
paulo

  3. OH Paulo!!! My heart breaks for you. I have had that happen from an "overload" of preservatives in commercial spaghetti sauce!!! I can feel your pain. It's good that you're a Doctor...therefore, well connected with the other disciplines. I have sinus trouble as well. Have you ever tried a Neti Pot? Works wonders and really helps cut down on the number of sinus infections!! You might want to consider this if you have alot of trouble with your sinuses. Oh...by the way, not only do I "play in art", I'm also an RN here in the US!! Hope you feel better soon. Can't wait to see the new cut files. You always amaze me with your talent!!! Hisses, Rockin Robin

  5. Oh poor Paulo. Our family said prayers for you last night and lit a candle.

    I am not a doctor, but our family has very sensitive skin. Here are two suggestions that might give some relief.

    Use pure aloe plant. We can buy them at stores here. I just cut off a leaf and split it. It has a goo inside great for blisters. Here is a photo. http://www.freeherbpictures.com/aloe-herb-pictures.htm

    You could also try an oatmeal paste for the itching. Here is a link on how to make it. Make sure you stay in the tub on this one. If you get it on your carpet it is hard to get it out. http://www.allergyfree-gardening.com/tips.php

    I am so sorry you are suffering. This reaction sounds horrible. I bet you are so tired from not sleeping.

    Take Care

  7. Paulo,
    You take care of yourself! My mother had the same thing and it could've been life threatening! Although you are a doc, you should know! Is it Steven Johnson's syndrome?
    love hugs and prayers

  18. Paulo, I am going to have to visit more often. LOL

    I have you bookmarked now so I can.

    I did NOT know you are a doctor so I learned something new about you today.

    My father-in-law had a reaction to a med and broke out in tiny blisters all over and then his skin peeled. I felt so sorry for him as he had Alzheimers at the time.

    I pray the new meds help quickly.

    Hugs!
