Author Topic: Always horribly itchy  (Read 831 times)

Apparently I have an extra-violent reaction to bug bites, but it takes me by surprise every summer. Right now I'm having trouble sleeping. I also get itchy all over when it's humid, so argharghargh.
Also, apparently, I can't stay indoors, even though I also sunburn really easily.
Discuss bugs, bug bites; anything.

Discuss anything.
Hmm
Where to start

My cat is beside me, so how about we start with that.
He's gray

OT: Go get some allergy meds or something.

bugs dislike me and i dislike them. it's a good relationship.

1 person dislikes this latest attack.

I have the same skin issue as you with burning but I don't get uber itchy all over.
I just get IBS (Itchy ball syndrome)

Oh god me too, my cousin says that the mosquitos think I'm juicy.

yikes, sensitive skin?
Yep.
In fact, I'll likely end up with skin cancer like my grandfather, and chicken pox already played Hell with my skin twice.

Anyway, bugs have always gone after me, too.

Btw Alyx, ever got burned so much your skin just peeled off over the course of about a week?

Yes
Took a month to stop, I was red as a lobster just for being in the sun for longer than 6 hours.
I have some kind of skin condition that plays hell on my skin.
It also grows some sort of fungus disk thing on my skin. It has a long ass name that I forgot... AGAIN

dont itch. problem solve.d
Are you kidding me?

strip down and let me help you with that  :cookieMonster:
No thanks.


That kind of cataclysmic sunburn I haven't had in a long while, but I remember enough to sympathize.
I don't have any fungal troubles though.

Yea, they hurt like hell :c
And I was peeling down to the serious nerves to so it hurt.

But yea I have a hereditary skin condition causing fungus stuff to grow on my skin, not very attractive... Its on my side, my arm, and some other parts of my arm.


And I'm a hereditary snoot, descended from inbred French royalty or whatever umpteen generations ago.
but that stinks.

You should bathe more often to wash insect saliva out.
