Head sore rant! Mood
Friday, October 16, 2009 | A Venting story

Ahhhhhh......I am so sick of the ongoing battle with headsores and lesions!!!! My scalp is so tender it hurts to have hair, and the sores are taking over. I'm freaking out! I have so many sores in the front of my hair and they are working their way back to the crown. It feels like I have evil little demons pulling my hair out in little fistfuls over and over again. And to make it all that much better....my face is has more than a rash...I have a nickle sized lesion on the side of my nose...just to really make the dime sized ones just below my hairline look like nothing.

 

I feel like people are looking at me and are disgusted. I feel it affects my professional life and when my fiance returns............I look like a monster...a scabby....scaly, red inflamed....oozing gross freak!

 

I know others have it worse...but I am venting....and these aren't the worst lesions I've had....I had a huge one on my hand for over a year. I worry that people think I use crack or meth! Occasionally someone will joke that I have AIDS lesions or to stop hurting myself....I laugh it off...but it really hurts, because I feel ugly and in pain and I can't control it.
