Stress related hives?
« on: 04/12/2008 02:46:56 »
Help!

I have a massive final tomorrow morning that I am freaking out about... all of a sudden I've broken out in hives thus leading me to freak out even more!

What can I do, besides relax (its my fav class/fav prof so I need to do well)?

ARGH! I'm so itchy!

are you sure its not something new you ate?

well relax some 1% cortisone cream for the itchiness might help during the exam..Benedryl if you can take it, it can ease the hives also... over the counter.. on your way to class... might make you sleepy though!

Get yourself to an area of high flower poputaion. The bees will make for the flowers and, with a bit of luck, take their hives with them!

A good counter for stress is a good laugh. So don't read the above, it'll just induce a groan.

Well I should update: the hives went away, took a beer or two, but they disappeared.

Exam was this morning and let me tell you I owned it! Woo hoo!
