I now have another concern...
to which you are all going to giggle.
I had shingles right after chemo. They weren't in your typical shingle findin' place, they were in my buttcrack.
Ok, now that you have giggled a bit, they started out by painfully itching and then a rash. Well.....the top of my buttcrack is itching somethin fierce. While you may think that I am not hip on hygene, I truly am and take multiple baths and showers per day to calm the large bundle of joy in my belly.
Now, the worry part - I have been totally stressed out this week over my OB, a possible new blood clot (that was ruled out via CT on monday), a death in the family, my incompetent OB, etc... I know that my hubby loves me with all his heart, but if I tell him that I am freakin' out over the possiblity of shingles now, he will absolutely freak. I am pg. Um, I can't have shingles. There is no time for this nor is it healthy for either of us.
good lord - the health issues just don't stop. I am thinking if the itching doesn't go away by tuesday morning, I am calling the OB.

Found you. ;)
Oh and a thought on your itchy butt crack. Is it possible since you are taking multiple showers that you have really dry skin there, especially here in Colorado, you really need to lotion up after each shower. Just a thought. ((((HUGS)))) Hope it supsides soon.
