i’ve also broken out in hives 3 times in the past 3 months… like all the other MCAS symptoms i have (which is most of them, excluding the anaphylaxis) i’ve had for years and they could easily be explained by my other syndromes but now i’m getting HIVES? HIVES? on MY BODY? frequently and without clear cause???

i’ve just spent like a year wondering if i have dandruff or scalp eczema or psoriasis that doesn’t show up literally anywhere else on my body. like maybe i should ask a doctor about that but i should probably also switch to head & shoulders :/

#like it isn’t that big a deal UNLESS i develop the ‘random ever-changing allergies with a chance of death by anaphylaxis’#the hives (and my scalp if that’s fucking related but probably not?) are the only NEW issue occasionally plaguing me #but 😭😭😭 not an autoimmune disorder too #aside from some mild environmental allergies and a mild allergy to bug venoms my immune system was the ONE BODILY SYSTEM i was confident in #my cardiovascular system? glitchy. my musculoskeltal system? glitchy. my nervous system? glitchy. my digestive system? glitchy. and so on.#but my immune system i could be like girl at least you got one thing mostly right somehow i still havent gotten COVID as far as i know #and i tested anytime i felt abnormally shitty when i was an essential worker i didnt wanna go to fucking work and give people COVID #but nah just my usual viral sinus infections that i get when my seasonal allergies act up + one of those turned into viral tonsillitus #which the Urgent Care people were kinda surprised by #they had to call me like damn this is weird but you can stop taking that amoxicillan somehow you got a rhinovirus in there
