Ug. This skin thing is getting worse. I still think it's the same thing (Pityriasis Rosea), but the spots have spread from my chest and stomach to my armpits (even a couple on my arms), groin (I'm glad these didn't appear first, that would have freaked me out), and back. I look gross, but the biggest problem is that they're so itchy! It's hard to sleep and so hard not to scratch. I'm covered in plain lotion and need to find some other ways to reduce the itchiness. I also have some more general red/irritated areas from scratching (I do it in my sleep, I'm itchy in my dreams), and from general friction? clothing? It was really hard to get dressed for work today. All my clothes are v-necks and I have a lot of red, green, and black which seems to highlight my irritated skin. I decided on my loosest white blouse, black pants, and a loose silk scarf. Don't know what I'm going to wear the rest of the semester. This is supposed to last 6-8 weeks :(

Oh ew, I really hope that's not it. It's not in the common scabies places (elbows, hands, feet, etc.) so that seems promising. I'm going to see the doctor on Thursday.
