this morning at 3:35 a.m. i called todd to ask him to take me to the doctor after a few hours of trying to fall asleep, but being unsuccessful because my entire body was itching like crazy. there were a few little red bumps here and there, but when i scratched, the whole area would flame up into what looked like hives. i tried to ignore it, but i itched so bad i couldn't sleep.
so we went to the e.r., and the doctor gave me three medicines to take-- two antihistamines and a steroid for the inflammation. they started working about 20 minutes later and i was able to sleep.
the weird thing is, i didn't do anything unusual yesterday! the best i could come up with is that i made and ate a new type of bread...? but my throat and mouth didn't swell up like you would think they would if i ingested something i was allergic to. i've been allergic to viruses before, so maybe i've got a virus.
who knows. weird.

Maybe you got a weird bug bite or something. Or maybe there are ants living inside your body. Just a thought.
riss, i think you have bed bugs. the same thing has been happening to me (well not that extreme!). itchy red dots all over my legs every morning. i hope you get better!!
