Patch testing

Well, this week, I'm having fun and games with the patch testing guys down at the hospital. 

A few times over the last year, when away from home, my face and hands have randomly swollen up and become itchy.  It's taken a while to get to the nitty gritty of what it might be and so I'm spending this week with little discs taped down on my back (87 of them to be precise!!)

Not sure if I'm imagining the need to scratch at them or if it's just the tape they've been stuck on with or if there's some kind of reaction going on under there but I guess we'll see! They come off on Wednesday and then I get looked at on Friday to see what's going on.  I can't get my back wet until then, so it's going to make for a fun week... now... dry shampoo or go somewhere nice for a hair wash and bouncy blow dry (yeah, right, with my scarecrow hair!) in the meantime???

Hope you have a lovely week!
