Posted by ActionZ

Hi Guys, I am having a severe allergic reaction to something and need your help. I am a 29yr old male currently living in Shanghai for work and over the last weekend went out into the bush for laser tag with a group of people. Wore jeans and a t-shirt and spent about 2 hours in the bush, there were little bugs, some ants, and the usual itch here and there from being pricked by leaves and foliage. After returning home that evening, there was a continuous itch on my lower right abdomen with some bumps. I thought the bumps were from me scratching it so thought nothing of it. The next morning I woke up to a HUGE area of itchy red bumpy rash on the right side of my body as well as along the underside of my entire right arm. Hundreds of little itchy red bumps. I immediately went to the ER and was told that it was an allergic reaction to something in the forest, given a steroid shot and some Clarityne + itch cream. I've always had allergies during spring with typical running nose and tears but never anything close like this. As the next day came, new itchy bumps would appear on my body like my left arm, back, shoulder, and now my face as if the rash was spreading apart from the area it started. Almost like chickenpox except the bumps would not break and eventually flatten itself within a day or 2 while remaining red. There seems to be a little fluid in the bumps but would never break. There was a hairy orange caterpillar on my shirt in the area where my bumpy rash started, could of possibly been poisonous?

lower right abdomen where the bumps started:

right arm, the most severe arm:

chest:

left arm, started on day 3:

face started on day 3 and got worse today:

Posted by MamaD0367

I am not sure if there is a specific test for snow mold, but if it has been 10 years since your last test you might want to test again simply because our body changes over time and whatever you are allergic to may have become more severe or you may have developed new allergies. Also, my child was tested 3 years ago for allergies. She was very young (under the recommended age for testing) however, she was having severe allergic reactions on a daily basis to everything. Interestingly other than testing positive for mold on the blood test the only positive reaction she had was to the control, which she was not supposed to respond to. All they could tell us was that she definitely has allergies and we will have to figure it out by trial and error. We have discovered that she has food allergies, allergies to certain medications in the penicillin family, and indoor/outdoor allergens and animals. We are considering testing again to see if we can get more specific, but we carry an epi-pen just in case anyway. Sorry for the side track - anyway, she has had some serious issues this spring. We live in an area that has been see-sawing with the weather and the snow mold is crazy this year. My poor baby has been very sick and still is, we have been doing everything we can to keep in under control and keep her out of the hospital (she also has other chronic health issues). Our ped recommended we change her sheets every other day, so that what ever comes inside doesn't stay in her sheets. Since she shares a room, we are changing all the kids sheets every other day, I also have been changing the air filter every 30 days in our furnace, she is using allergy eye drops, otherwise they swell shut, and her inhaler and nebulizer regularily, also, our chiropractor recommended her taking a supplement called Perimine which aids in respiratory health and has dramatically reduced the severity of her cough and chest tightness since taking. I am at the point where I may end up having her wear a mask when outdoors until the weather becomes more consistant. I hope this information helps you. I know it can be so uncomfortable and difficult to deal with and sometimes it seems the only answer is to wait it out, but you don't have to! Also, I would try a netipot treatment 1-2 times a day. I can't get my child to do it, but if I could I would!View Thread
