roids

so after a week of intense itching and feeling a bit under the weather, a co-worker looked at me and said ' YOU HAVE CELLULITIS!, GO TO THE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY!!'... the yelling was a bit dramatic, but i guess it can be serious. crazy.

Cellulitis (sel-u-LI-tis) is a potentially serious bacterial infection of your skin. Cellulitis appears as a swollen, red area of skin that feels hot and tender, and it may spread rapidly.

Left untreated, the spreading bacterial infection may rapidly turn into a life-threatening condition affecting the tissues underlying your skin and can spread to your lymph nodes and bloodstream.

so now i'm on a week long antibiotic and 2 week long steroid treatment. which is interesting, i never new steroids keep you up. i haven't been able to sleep for 2 days and i still have tons of energy...i can see why people get addicted to the stuff, i could keep going for days.

yeah...so i'm roiding it.
