For 3 months I've had a weird rash around my nostrils. Reddish and itchy and sometimes forming tiny pus spots and the pus stunk (close to nose). I've tried every cream going and even had a clap clinic test for an STD because nothing was shifting it - came back negative.
Doctors are useless - I can't be arsed to wait 2 years on an NHS list.
Surgical spirits kept the rash under control but has never fully removed it.
Yesterday I realised what it is - I'm allergic to something in my house!
As soon as I walk into the house my nose starts running and I feel like I'm coming down with a cold. Step outside and it goes away.
Something in my house is making me ill. I suppose my house grinds my gears?
I guess it's back to docs and demand full allergy testing and not just partial like they often do. |
I had similar over the winter, from November to February.
I have a few manageable allergies, allergic asthma, hayfever and also suffer from Ulcerative Colitis and everything always plays up worse in the winter. I can;t be in contact with cats and house dust sets me off like severe hayfever.
The UC got particularly bad over Christmas and my nose is still a bit sore inside now, just not anywhere near as bad.
I'm convinced it's to do with mould spores from fallen leaves. Every year, as soon as they start coming off the trees, my immune system goes into overdrive. UC is basically your immune system going over active and fighting your own intestine wall because it doesn't like a certain bacteria. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

Not sure if this helps but I get hay fever every year, for some reason some years seem to be worse than others. One year it was particularly bad, it was unbearable, I went to the doctor with it (which I have never bothered doing before, usually just get over-the-counter antihistamines) and he prescribed me some pretty strong tablets for the symptoms. Can't remember what they were but they done the job a treat. Drugs are the answer! ____________________ Must Go Faster

I never used to get hay fever and now I do, in my 40s
Also, I have a strong stomach and I am not squeamish. But ever since I had a very bad cold about 20 years ago, some strong unpleasant smells make me involuntary gag or throw up. |

I am trapped indoors by a giant poo. I can't go about today's business before I've taken care of my own
Max is unimpressed. He did a poo at 1.30am before we went to bed, but he has a look on his face which appears to signify that he thinks I am overanxious about pooing in public places. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

I rescued myself
I have an innate fear of dying like Elvis*.
So I prefer to do a naturally occurring poo. If it means I have to wait about a bit before leaving the house, then so be it.
I'm ready to carry on with my day now.
*I don't know why I think this is how Elvis died. There was always these rumours that he died on the can, and for some reason, the concept of straining so hard with constipation that he fell off and banged his head and/or had a heart attack and fell off, on his knees, arse up, with the poo halfway out, is what I seem to have stuck in my head. There are less dignified ways to go, but this is not the one I want for myself. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

History lesson from Alice Cooper (probably not entirely accurate ), to be sung in an Elvis voice :
I want to tell you a story, happened long ago
About a redneck boy down from Tupelo
I got the slick black hair, I played a rock guitar
I liked to shake my hips, man, then i went too far
He ate his weight in country ham
Killed on pills and woke in Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
I had a lot of girls, yeah, I had a lot of guns
When they found me dead, ow, the whole world was stunned
Went to the pearly gates, said, "I'm the hippest thing"
And Peter said "Well son, we already got ourselves a king"
He lived on southern deep-fried spam,
Killed on pills and woke in Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
He finished his short life sweaty and bloated and stoned
(A-Hey-Hey)
He ruled his domain and he died on the throne
No "Yes-Men", no colonel, he went all alone...
I heard the devil cry real loud and clear
"You were the big man, there, hejust a sideman here
Well, I know your face, and I've heard your name
Looks like heaven's loss, gonna be my gain"
(I've got plans for you, man)
He ate his weight in country ham
Killed on pills and woke in Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Disgraceland
Well, I woke up, right here in Disgraceland
Disgraceland, thank you, thank you very much ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

My mum (who spent most of her career managing a hospice, so probably qualified to comment here), told me it's common for people to go to the toilet just before they die. It's not the straining or falling off the throne and hitting your head that causes you to have a heart attack and die, apparently it's the fact that your body is already shutting down in preparation to give up that relaxes the muscles in the sphincter (my favourite word that, sphincter!) and therefore makes you feel like you need to go poo because you're already dying anyway!
Could be wrong, just one person's opinion.
Many years ago I worked for a large taxi company in Maidstone, one of our controllers died on the crapper at work ____________________ Must Go Faster

Seems that it actually might be.
I'm always wary of quoting Wikipedia, but...
" Dr. Dan Warlick, who was present at the autopsy, "believes Presley's chronic constipation—the result of years of prescription drug abuse and high-fat, high-cholesterol gorging—brought on what's known as Valsalva's maneuver. Put simply, the strain of attempting to defecate compressed the singer's abdominal aorta, shutting down his heart."
plus ...
"Ginger Alden discovered him in an unresponsive state on a bathroom floor. According to her eyewitness account, "Elvis looked as if his entire body had completely frozen in a seated position while using the commode and then had fallen forward, in that fixed position, directly in front of it. [...] It was clear that, from the time whatever hit him to the moment he had landed on the floor, Elvis hadn't moved."
I definitely do not want to die "fallen forward" and "frozen in a seated position" whilst having a heart attack because of constipation. I've never been one for hanging about on the khazi, and constipation would be the only thing to keep me there longer. Fortunately its rare for me to suffer with it.
... but when I do ... I think of Elvis. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |
