ok. so.. recently. Monday to be exact I ate a mango. A fresh one. Monday night my lips felt dry so I used some new chapstick. Tuesday my lips hurt a little more.. but I ate more mango for breakfast not really thinking about a connection. Wednesday my mouth broke out in a full out allergic rash.
Turns out, the peal of a mango carries the same chemical as poivy ivy. Which I happen to be allergic to. My lips were huge, swollen and itchy. Well as the week went on the rash went into my mouth. Today it hit its worst. I had to leave work early. And My face and the rest of me feels sooo itchy. Nothing really helps it, and they have no cure. My stomach also hurts, so I think I must have some mango still in my system.
So... be careful of mango! Seriously this has been the most painful allergic reaction ever. And I'm suppose to go on vacation in 4 days! So I am praying it goes away.
Also.. its really hard to eat. So I've drinking a lot of water, but my weight loss might be off this week. Which I dont really care about right now. Cuz my face feels like its on fire! :(
