Ana was having chest fluttering yesterday, so Jenn took her to the doctor. And the doctor said she has just fought off strep with apparently no symptoms until that. (Seriously?)

I was feeling fine until Jenn told me this. Immediately I began to feel a rash on me, bumpy like strep. Well, I can be a hypochondriac too, so I tried to ignore it. The more I ignored it, the more my throat started to feel sore. Psychosomatic.

I woke up this morning still rashy, and now slightly itchy... and Jenn said I'm rashed up all over my chest and face, because by this point I didn't trust my own ability to tell.

Yup. I'm sick. With strep. So let's hie me to the doctor!

Joy. *sighs*

Feel better soon.

God, I better.

But hey, at least nobody's on the roof! (In our family, "the cat is on the roof" is a very popular story, and code for, of course, unexpected death.)

Yeah, if I'd known I wouldn't've gone out in the rain to fetch Ana's medicine yesterday. My pants are drying now, then I'm going to the doctor.

That sucks. I hope you feel better soon!

I am like that too, you know. It's not even that I *worry* I'm sick, but I'm just suggestive. If I didn't have physical proof (actual cysts removed, surgical diagnosis, gushing blood for 3 weeks straight, etc) of my issues, I'd be positive I was insane. Sometimes even WITH the proof I have, I feel insane anyway. I know the mind is pretty powerful and I always wonder if my mind is making it up so strongly it becomes physical and real. Not just like real pain because pain isn't something anyone else can see. But real THINGS (like aforementioned cysts). Argh, there, see? I AM insane...

I suppose it's possible to get a psychosomatic rash, but psychosomatic cysts and bleeding? Seems less likely, luckily (?).
