Today, I realized that I have given myself a fever blister. Normally, I only get them very rarely, if I have been in the sun too long without sunblock on my lips, or if I actually have a fever.
Well, not anymore. Today one just popped up to say hello, probably to be like, "yes, this is how your life could be worse."
I have let myself seriously go the last few weeks. I haven't exercised, put on much makeup, or given a general rat's ass about my appearance. It occurred to me today that when I have a real job, this will not be acceptable, as doing all the above when working on my couch at home is ok but probably not in a workplace.
Anyway. Abreva better work. The last thing I want is to show up for Thanksgiving with the in-laws with a honkin' blister on my lip.

Awww I'm sorry about the blister! That sucks!
I have chronic uticaria and usually when I'm really stressed I break out into some serious hives (more like wheals). Last year I got so stressed out an old heart condition "came back" and I was having all sorts of crazy heart palpatations that I hadn't had for at least 5 years...
You have all my sympathies. I've been battling eczema for the last few months. Even my doctor is resigned to the fact that it won't really go away until I submit.
Hope the blister's going down.
Oh Phiz - sorry, that sucks.
That happens to me occasionally when I'm really stressed out. I nearly popped another blister when I found out how much that TINY little tube of Abreva costs. Grrr. In my case, I'm not sure that it cleared things up any faster, but I sure hope it works for you. Hang in there.
Ugggh. That sucks out loud. Stupid HSV.
The Abreva has helped mine when they come from the sun (or stress) - it helps to start right away as soon as you feel something, and you don't have to put much on at once. My little tube has lasted a long time.
Hope it's better by TG!
Thanks everyone - why do we do this to ourselves? Eczema, uticaria, HSV, seriously...this life is screwy sometimes.
Abreva seems to be helping as I put it on the MOMENT I felt something...we shall see.
