Hives, hand swelling, high blood pressure
Oh the mess I have got myself into after all the heart breaking work trying to conceive. Awhile back I posted about getting hives every single day about since I found out. I’ve been super lucky to continue enjoying that haha. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but I can’t believe I’m alone in this crazy symptom! This evening they started popping up and my daughter was sleeping on me so I didn’t get up and take the Zyrtec for it that my doctor prescribed. I think I let them go on to long tonight and now my hands have been swollen for a couple hours. In addition to the hives I have high blood pressure so the swelling immediately put me on alert panicking about what I was going to do if I had to see a doctor tonight while my husband is on a detachment and the only people I know on base are all out of town for the holiday. My mind was racing while I was just trying to sit there and be relaxed before it clicked that duh allergic reactions can cause swelling just like this. I was avoiding google like the plague until I wanted to confirm that lol. Because my blood pressure was a little high again when I checked it after I noticed the swelling I am going to call a nurse in the morning. It was probably high from my stress of thinking I would be dragging these kids to the ER with me haha. I hope everyone is having a goodnight!! Thanks for reading my ramblings. Can you tell I need some adult interaction today? ?
