Good Thursday Morning

Good morning! I was very surprised when I woke up this morning and it was 4:30am. I can't remember the last time I have slept that long. I did have a really tiring day yesterday so that may have something to do with it. It would be nice if it continued but it probably won't. Today my brother goes to his cardiologist and then Friday he goes back to his primary care doctor to go over his lab results. I pray they find something that will explain his symptoms. Last night he was itching so bad that he couldn't stay still. He was almost in tears. The poor thing was covered in hives. He is definitely allergic to something but we have yet to figure out what it is. He finally took benadryl and within 30 minutes he was feeling better. So, off I go to read posts, comment and work notifications. hope everyone has a terrific Thursday!

The image you posted is so beautiful.

Is your brother is diabetic? I heard diabetics patients get itching problems. Hope he will be alright soon. It is very difficult to deal with such problems.

Yes he is a diabetic but his A1C is normal so I don't think that would cause the itching but you never know.

@Sreekala he still has itching and not feeling good. The lab work from the doctor didn't show anything. He is having more labs done.

I hope they can figure out what he is allergic to, itching like that is horrible. Maybe some calamine lotion might help.

I suggested the calamine lotion but he is against it. He's taking benedryl. Guess he would rather be sleepy than have pink spots all over him...lol

That must be so distressing for your brother (and you), I hope they find the cause of it.

Good morning, I was a couple of hours later then you were getting up and out of bed this morning. Pretty soon I will have to shower, dress and start getting ready for work. I hope that your brother gets good news between the two doctor appointments that he has coming up.

Unfortunately, we still don't know anything. It's going to have to be a process of elimination.

And here it is Saturday already!!! What did the doctor say about the hives?

They don't know what is causing it. An allergy of some kind but don't know what. If it continues he will probably have to have an allergy test done.

I don't mind being up early but don't like waking up at 1:30am. They still don't know what is going on with my brother but they haven't given up.

I hope they will figure out what is wrong with your husband and what he is allergy to.

He's not my husband, he's my brother. I think they will eventually have to do allergy tests.
