Allergy

[mary walters]

Thanks for that Lisa, I have to have full allergy test on my back and also a biopsy of sores, the itching is really painful too, specially when it starts on most of my body at once.

I don't think I am allergic to my T's either, just making them a scapegoat methinks.

Whatever the result, spider allergy or not, I hope things go well for you Mary and you're back to full health soon. All the best

[Lisa Baines]

sounds very similar to how I used to get mary. I got the beginnings of sores but they never got much further, due to blathering myself in menthol-aqueous cream. And the itching... oh man giving birth was less painful!

anyway, it's something to may be mention to the medical professional, I hope you get it all sorted soon xxx

There is no way I am racist, genderist or anything elseist mate. I don't suppose you have thought that I am not a youngster and as we get older bits tend not to work so well!!!!!!

that's it, Mary, tell it like it is mate!

really sorry to hear of your health issues, Mary...allergies are funny things, but yeah it's easy to point fingers at the pets!!!
given that some are allergic to urticating hairs (me for example, yay!) i can see that being a cause, but you've been keeping mainly OW for a bit now, haven't you? they don't do anything offensive but snap at you or run away!

all i can say is i hope they find the real cause soon and get you some much needed help!!

thanks Lisa, Nicola.

Yes james I do tell it like it is mate, you know me well. I do have a few NW, blondi's, apo's, paras,brachys,Psalmo's, burgundy's, the rest are africans and bite first like you say lol.

Lisa I would rather give birth than have the pain from this ulcer today trust me. I am washing with aqueous cream, have changed washing and washing up to Surcare, I am even gonna go grey disgracefully in case hairdye affects me.

You made a racist comment about a doctor trying to help you and you somehow seem to forget what ever country they came from they are qualified Doctors and not a dumb shop assistants.

Damien, Mary has quite clearly explained what she meant, so let's just leave it at that.

Unless you have something constructive to add to the discussion then please feel free to say nothing.

Shaz from BN (and here) had issues with her Ts, you might want to ask if she found any relief. Unfortunately she had to sell them all and concentrate on the rest of her inverts but she may have some advice to share.

Thinking about you Mary, I pray you'll find something to ease the pain and get yourself back to health.

[mary walters]

Thanks Phil xx

Thanks Peter, I just hope I don't have to sell up,would break my heart after so many years in the hobby.

[Peter Lacey]

Mary that should be your last resort. I'm sure there are many friends that would gladly look after some of your collection, give them a little holiday whilst you have a respite. If there's a need for that let me know.
Your problems are more likely to be the condition of the house you moved into than your Ts, especially considering you are so hands off.

Yes Peter, this place was filthy wasn't it, I am wondering if it's MRSA. Have been given 5th course of antibiotics in 3 months, and am told only Pennicillin will kill it, and I am allergic to Pennicillin.
