face fire is out -- my face is almost back to normal. minm, you were right -- basically, i got a free !surprise! chemical peel. i washed with cetaphil, and while i was rinsing off, i could feel that i was rubbing off a layer of skin. (apologies to anyone eating breakfast)
the rx lotion is called desonide, and apparently it's a steroid. maybe yesterday was just roid rage.
campaign of fire on the phone resulted in the dr calling me back just as i was shutting down. diagnosis is continue meds, and i can add dairy back to my diet. i went to TOWN on a magnum bar last night, and just ate some sour cream and onion potato chips (yes, it's just past 10am).
all i needed was a yeast infection (junk drawer fire) and my day of fire would have been conplete.
