Ending the detox

Well the reason I have not blogged about my detox was on day 4 I developed this weird rash all over my face that burned and itched really really bad. I had not introduced anything new to my diet, or topically except for the detox. On day 5 it was seriously bad, my face was swollen two sizes larger than it already was, and my face felt like it needed to be peeled off, a friend of mine who happened to be a nurse told me that it was a serious allergic reaction to something and to get to an er or urgent care immediately. I wasn't too keen on that since those cost bookoo bucks, so I took an antihistamine and tried to wait it out. So far it has been working, but sadly the hives are not gone.....the detox was easy to stick to and I had not craved sugar after day 4 not even winking or nudging towards the cookies, so I would have definitely stayed on it if this allergic reaction did not occur. It should be day 6 now and the hives are still here, not as bad as day 5, but they are not fun at all! I will update more as the week goes on to see if it flares up again or not. Sadly though I'm assuming there is something in the detox that is causing this, since last night I was woken out of a dead sleep for a visit to the oval office (which was the first out of the ordinary time since I started the detox), and so I'm thinking it has taken this long to actually get into my system and work its evil magic... :( who knows!
