Hello

I have been getting large pain full bumps on my body for the past few months.  I had one that looked kind of weird on my leg a few months ago and went in to see my doctor and he said that it was a staph infection.  He told me that if I get more then one at a time to come back in.  Well, I did notice a few weeks after the one on my leg faded away that I had another one and thought nothing of it because it was just one.  Well I looked at it closer and found that I had a sprinkling of red dots all around the same area.  So I made an appointment and went in, my Dr told me to avoid taking long showers  and to stay away from pools and to use lotion.   I am taking a huge pill twice a day and we hope that it will fix the problem.  For the ones who don't know about staph infections,  if it is not taken care of it could get into my blood stream and give me pneumonia and if it gets bad it could kill me.  My doctor told me that sense I am young and have no other complications that I should be OK.  It will take about six months to get rid of it all together.  So I am a bit worried but not to bad.

I have decided to do something very hard, you know that guy I like from work?  Well, he plays Frisbee every Wednesday and Saturday.  I was playing with him every week until I found out that he was in a relationship. So, I have decided that in order for me to get past the idea that he has a girlfriend I need to involve my self with them instead of hiding.  I want to keep playing Frisbee with him and if she is there then I can get past the pain faster, I hope.  I want him to know that I want to keep spending time with him away from work.  I don't want the pain but I really don't want to lose his friendship.  So I hope that I can get past it and have fun. I am going today and my tummy is all tied up in knots and full of butterfly's.

 Oh and I found out last Friday that my old (almost boyfriend) is returning to Nu Skin.  Ugh!!! God give my strength.

Scary about the staph infection. I know those can be dangerous. Good you caught it early.

I like your plan with the frisbee guy. Hiding just hurts. And you might make some new friends. Win win. :)

Good luck with the old guy. You can do it.
