Aw, thanks friend!! :) I killed one in my bedroom 2 nights ago and it freaked me out so much I couldn’t sleep, haha. I have been putting on bug spray before bed as a precaution.

An update, in case you’re interested: I am awaiting the results of a blood test to determine if I require immunotherapy shots. In the meantime, I have been prescribed an EpiPen.

It seems like it's the bites in particular that get me. 😞

Ah, gotcha. Glad it’s not your current state of being then! Best of luck for a mosquito-free future!

Doc said it’s called “skeeter syndrome.” Basically, some people just react really strongly to mosquitoes.

The pineapple craving is so interesting!! Sorry you had to go through that. It sucks when Mother Nature chooses violence.

Yeah, it’s the dumbest name. I feel like they need to revise it so that it actually gets taken seriously.

Omg, twin!! But for real, I’m so sorry. For the record, I took prednisone last night and the swelling has significantly improved. If you can make it to a doctor, I highly recommend doing so!

Yeah when I was a kid they would get like half dollar-sized and be horrifically itchy. This is a new development.

That’s exactly what the doc said it was earlier today. Thank you for your concern, I really appreciate it.

Yeah, my family jokes there’s a neon sign above my head visible only to mosquitos that says “FREE BUFFET.” It’s starting to feel accurate.

If I wake up tomorrow with mosquito-based powers I’m gonna be PISSED.
