Round Two

Oh hey guys. That is a picture of the current state of my legs.

…and my arms…

…and my stomach.

In the interest of making sure you don’t have nightmares, I’ll refrain from posting pictures of my face and chest.

Conclusion: I’m allergic. REALLY allergic. To what, I don’t know. Yet. It may be the antibiotics I was on, it may be the towels I used, it may be some food I ate. But as of right now, all I know is that I belong in a fuckin’ LEPER COLONY.

But on the bright side, Peace Corps is putting me up in a hospital (yeah, I’m in a hospital right now) in case the allergic reaction gets so bad my airways start to close. I have an IV pumping antihistamines and some sort of steroid into my body. I itch terribly all over. My stay in this hospital will cost Peace Corps $1100. I just ordered room service. I look forward to watching the Packers-Bears game.

If you take the disgusting red hives out of this picture, it’s actually a pretty nice setup.

Twice in one week that I’m in Phnom Penh on medical. This curse of karma is so, so vicious.
