Live and learn...
On Monday I was happy that our supermarket got a new container delivered (imported food) so I went there during lunch to get our basics before it was all gone.
Since I didn't have time to have a proper lunch I just had a slice of cheese and started to feel really sick in seconds, blisters on my lips, mouth swelling, stomach pain etc. I took immediatly an antihistaminic medication (twice), and was happy the allergy symtoms stopped before it became really bad. I didn't need to use my epipen or go to the ER so... all good!
Anyway, 48h later, I gained 4 pounds. I just can't believe how my body react to everything! I know there's no reason to panic, it's not the first time I take a medication and gain weight, it will be gone in one week/ten days.. but this is starting to get really old...
My inflammation level must be really high right now, my skin is also dry and reactive and I can't even take my omegas to calm it down because it's increasing my reflux badly...
No more of that cheese for me until we leave!!
