Wednesday: A cluster of tiny bumps sends Susan for the hydrocortisone cream. F*cking poison ivy!
Thursday: An explosion of poison ivy blisters assault Susan's delicate arm. She finds relief by turning on the shower as hot as it goes and thrusting her arm underneath.
Friday: Oozing, gauze. Temporary hot shower relief.
Saturday: Oozing, gauze, angry inflammation, relentless itching. Three hours in Stat Medical. First dose of Prednisone. Can't sleep because of the ITCHING.
Sunday: Oozing, gauze, relentless itching. Second dose of Prednisone.
Monday: Oozing subsides, still horrifying ugly, hot shower relief is back. Third dose of Prednisone.
Tuesday: Itching under control, ugliness continues to be hidden by gauze. Seven more days of Prednisone to go.
