Reaction to EPO *tmi warning*

[MrsBexie]

Hi,
I started using EPO tablets up the hoohaa 2 nights ago.
2 capsules the first night and 1 last night... I have since been irritated and really itchy around my butthole... Not inside or anything just around it and on the skin between my hoohaa n butthole. I have a few little lumps which are the itchy bits I guess...kinda feel like mozzie bites except no mosquito would make it through my massive ar*e to bite me there! Haha
It only started the yesterday morning after my first night of inserting EPO.

Is it possible I've had a reaction to EPO and that's what's causing these little itchy lumps? I'm not using them tonight just to see if it's better in the morning, just taking them orally.

Sorry if TMI! Lol

I guess it could be.. I've never heard of it? but people can have reactions to all kinds of things. If it started at the same time as you started the EPO, I'd do what you are doing.. hold off for a bit, see if it gets better or not. If it doesn't go away, see your Dr.
Could it be thrush?

[MummyDuck]

Bumps sound like hives, which yes could be an allergic reaction. Always best to speak to the doc though.

[MrsBexie]

I didn't do anything else different except the EPO... So far this morning it's not as bad... (I haven't woken up wanting to scratch my bum off! Haaha) I'll keep my eye on it and if it's still there later I will go to the Dr... Eww! Would they look???

And no to thrush... I used to get thrush all the time from internal damage but this is not like thrush at all...

[Tegam]

never heard of it but it is a natural thing and just as likely you could be allergic to it! I would stop taking it orally too JIC!

[Alan]

Yes it does sound like an allergy to me. Give it a miss for a couple of nights and see how you go

[MrsBexie]

I didnt use it last night or tonight and the itching has eased a little... Def not as bad and uncontrollable as yesterday! I have still taken them
Orally cause I think it was the oil being around that area that was irritating me...
Got my MW app tomorrow so might mention it and stay away from internally using it!!

Alan is using it orally effective too?? Or only internal?

[Alan]

Using it orally will help but effectiveness is increased when it is inserted.

[MrsBexie]

Well just an update... The itching I had on my chest neck and jaw was not from EPO... Not sure what it is from, maybe the rlt tablets because they were the only other new thing n since I stopped taking them, the itching eased off. I am taking EPO again just not inserting... I may start that tomorrow night because my butt is still itchy and thinking it might be hemorrhoids or something...

Yay for EPO again!! Lol
