itchy night

gahhhhhh only managed to get one hour sleep last night had the itchies real bad so just gave up and got up.
gonna make a wallyworld run (out of canned dog food).
i'm curently taking urso 500mg 2 times a day, cholestyramine 2 times a day and atarax 50 mg at bed time for the itching.
this had been one of the worst nights for itchine in a longgggg time.
we have a great dane ( black female) english mastiff ( tan male)
golden retriever ( very old female) and 8 cats, so animal food runs are an almost daily thing for us.
i'm trying to talk the wife into letting me breed the dane and mastiff together, i have seen pictures of the mix and they look awsome.
guess after the wally run i will try and get a nap( we both work at the same hospital and same shift, 12 hour nights)
since the coffee is ready i'll have a cup and get dress and head out.
ya'll have a great day see ya later.

Gallium....I had those itchies and skin [roblems BAD on my tx. Zyrtec took my itchies away....in 10 minutes! It was also good for 1-2 days at a time per pill. Zyrtec doesn't have the anti-anxiety effects that your atarax does but it sure did cure my itch.
Ringading.....What are you doing watchin those Polyanna type movies? No wonder you're gettin depressed. I told you about those "Chick Flicks! You need something closer to the Jungle Book....or better yet...Dudley DoRight. I can see it now...You all crying cuz you can't make the mortgage payment. Snydley comes riding up(tweaking his handlebar moustache) laughing. He bangs on your door yelling..."Pay the Rent"!. "But I can't pay the rent" you reply(getting more upset). "PAY THE RENT"....and he kicks open the door. "I can't pay the rent" you say through the Riba induced sobbing. He proceeds to tie you up in the kitchen and make out the ransom notes. Just then...off in the distance....you hear it...(lone Ranger music).....It'd Dudley Dori DoRight of the Mounties!(she IS a guy now I hear) He rides up to your house on his horse Fred sitting backwards. The horse stops DEAD at the porch throwing Dori right onto the porch where he flys past Grow-a Date(which you have hung from a noose on the porch after last weeks date night fiasco) and on into the kitchen where he and Snydley proceed to fight. As they tumble out onto the porch BAM...Snydley is cold cocked by Grow a Date which was still swinging. Dori unties you and you are EVER so grateful and you start to clean up the mess. Snydley wakes up and pulls his gun. Just as he is about to shoot they see YOU inside....You have remembered that its "shot Night" and have exposed your belly to do the "Deed". Well.....they BOTH suddenly forget what they were fighting about in the first place and just stand there staring at you. You get pissed at them staring at your belly and throw water at them as you close the door. This REALLY excites Grow a Date who expands and knocks both of them off the porch so they leave still wonderin what happened. This leaves you...all alone...in the kitchen...still surrounded by the garbage....but happier now.....because you now know WHY this all happens.  Its your BELLY! Everytime you or anyone looks at it they forget everything else. Cleopatra Nile Navel Syndrome they call it. So....Just don't look at your belly when you do your shot and maybe you'll remember whats goin on from now on....  And your Kitchen will be cleaner.
See how simple that was???

Gallium, Sorry to hear you are itching so badly. I used Alpha-Keri bath oil. I took as little showers as possible (because I felt like befuddled)!!!!!! When I got outta the shower I would pour straight into the palm of my hand and rub it all ove, even my face. Then I would try to air dry @ pat dry as not to rid of the bath-oil. It worked for me! Hope you get some rest.

Befuddled..I HEAR YA DUDE!!!!! I WAS JUST LIKE YOU. I HATED TO LEAVE THE HOUSE, WOULD TRY TO GET IN 3 DOC'S IN THE SAME DAY. THAT'S THE ONLY TIME I WOULD VISIT MY PARENTS, TO REST IN BETWEEN APPOINTMENTS. THEN MY MOTHER WOULD FUSS AT ME FOR NOT FIXING MY HAIR AND PUTTING ON MAKE-UP!!!!! Putting clothes on was bad enough!!!! I want my energy back!!!!!!!

pale, DITTO!

ringading, HANG IN THERE!!!!! SPECIAL PRAYERS FOR YOU TONITE!

Showboat, Welcome and good luck to you this go round!!!! You have a lot of spirit!!! Don't think I could do this again.

Thanks to everybody in here for always being here for me! MUCH LOVE TO ALL, Cindee

I got a kind of a funny story for you. I went to the drs. today for my 2nd hep b shot and got my 48 week heptimax done a few weeks early at the same time. This in case I'm still clear I plan on doing an extra 8 weeks cause I enjoy it so much! Well on the way home I was in the left turn lane, one guy left in front of me when the arrow turns yellow. This joker stops immediately. Why I had to get behind the one person in Anchorage that would stop on yellow I don't know, I hit the brakes but the truck never even slowed down, just slid on the ice and slammed into him, pretty hard, too. See, I thought I would try to make it thru the winter without putting my studded tires on so I could save the 120 bucks. Bad idea, but didn't hurt his truck cause I have a big old flat homemade bumper on the front, so he says hell with it, let's get out of here. Man, was I relieved, sure is a sickening feeling to hit the brakes and just keep going. But, my bumper kicked back and crinkled the hood a little bit, so I got to spend the last hour laying in the snow in the 5 degrees(F) straightening that mess up a little. Not the way I wanted to spend the afternoon at all. I hate winter sometimes
