Rash :(

So without completely grossing everyone out and posting several pictures of my entire rashed body with swollen welts all over my body lets just make this story short but definitely not sweet! I started having a small tiny rash on my body Friday in 2 spots thinking maybe it was just an allergic reaction from something we ate or because we were out in the heat in Las Vegas so maybe it was a small heat rash. I woke up the next morning and it had spread all over my belly, legs, and back, at this point it was itchy but if I remained cool it didn't seem to be that bad. By the time it was time to get ready for Nicki Minaj it had started to spread on my jawline on my face. :( I was not in any way canceling on this amazing experience we were about to venture to so I kept on trucking, throughout the concert it was alittle itchy but the concert took my mind off of it. We went into the bathroom to check to see how bad it was and it now was practically all over my body, so we didn't get to go out after the concert or do anything extra because I needed to put anti itch cream on my body and cool down :( I felt so bad for my hunny cause it was her birthday night but she was so supportive and understood. I put calamine lotion all over and we went to bed, the next morning it was still just as bad I had now been taking benadryl for 12 hours straight and if anything it was getting worse. We went back to California where I went to urgent care, the ruled out shingles, meningitis, and anything that was a huge serious problem and said that it was the worse skin rash that they had ever seen. They said it appeared that I had an allergic reaction, yet I did nothing different so I have no idea what caused it. i was put on benadryl, and steroid for 5 days to get it to go away. The rash was starting to lessen as each day passed and after having it for 4 full days it was gone! I still was very dry and couldn't get hot without itching, but I never in my life want to experience anything of that nature ever again :(
This picture was taken Saturday night, the following day was waaaaayyyyy worse but I didnt want to post a ton of nasty rash pics lol
