😲 It was late March 2015 when the first hive showed up.
It had been a stressful season of my life and I chalked my skin's inflammation up to stress.
Little did I know that I would struggle with chronic idiopathic hives for over six years before I found a resolution. 🤷‍♀️

My doc told me my high bp might be “idiopathic”. So I Google it and find out that basically it’s doctor parlance for “there is something wrong with you and we have no clue what the fuck is causing it.”

Doctors get to use the kewlest words.. yet another reason of the Mt. Everest high heap of reasons why I should have not dropped out of medical school.
