hive-d

Misery comes in the form of hives.

Don't know what they are? I didn't know till last night, when it turned me into a panicking wreck.

"Urticaria, also known as hives, is an outbreak of swollen, pale red bumps or plaques (wheals) on the skin that appear suddenly -- either as a result of the body's adverse reaction to certain allergens, or for unknown reasons." -WebMD

I can confirm that they're damn gross. And it's true that sometimes no one knows why they come about. They're sneaky and mysterious, like they'd suddenly appear in one area then disappear and re-appear elsewhere. It's making me paranoid cuz I keep checking for new spots haha. I just hope I'd get better before CNY :(

On the good side, it gives rise to funny conversations like this:

now much better, except will still have random patches here and there
no one knows what i'm allergic to haha
and like the patches will come and go, like will suddenly appear in 1 spot then disappear and appear elsehwere
make me paranoid lor, cu zi keep checking for new spots haha
and i think will take a few days to fully recover :(

Heart skipped a beat
And when I caught it you were out of reach
But I'm sure, I'm sure
