Warning, MAJOR TMI coming up. I'll even put it under a cut, in case you're not comfortable with reading about creepy crawley stuff that lives under your skin.
I strongly suspect that me and my husband have been unfortunate enough to get crabs. Not the shelled ones on the beech that tweek your toes, no I'm talking about those little disgusting creatures that dig around under your skin. The thought alone makes me shiver and want to scratch myself even more. It's not yet confirmed by a doctor, but considering what the world wide web could tell me about crabs, we have all the right symptoms. Namely itching! In all the most annoying places!
And frankly, I have no clue where we got it! Supposedly it only transfers to you if you share clothes or bed with someone who has it, or has extended physical contact with an infected. And it must be me who caught it, because I itched for a good week or so before my husband started. And I hardly even leave the house these days! It boggles my mind...
Oh well, I'll call the doc tomorrow and have it confirmed. (Fingers crossed that it might be something less gross) Oh the joy of having to call all the people in your circle of friends and family to warn them to look out for crabs. *sigh*
