I went to the dermatologist. I originally had a heat rash in several areas from being out in the sun. When I showered that day, I used some lemon verbena soap from Trader Joe’s and had an allergic reaction on the heat rash spots that caused them to be red, raw, blistered, weeping and welted. Oh boy, did it hurt. Most of the problem slowly started going away but I have a few areas that deteriorated and became badly infected. I feel like such a dope. The fatigue, pain, fever and what I was seeing should have prompted an immediate visit. I failed to see it. Fortunately, we have a course of treatment now and I am on the proper things to resolve this. Thank you all for your concern. A valuable lesson learned. Know when to seek help.

I hope everybody has a peaceful evening. Hugs to all!
