HELP what’s wrong with me!?

vdm • HIE & NICU mama. Nail technician. Interracial family.

I’m 18w1d I’m type 1 diabetic but I’m controlled with a 5.9 A1c.

Anyways yesterday I took a shower (did not use any new products) and about two hours later my back and scalp were itchy like crazy. I woke up this morning to extreme itching. I have a hivey looking rash all over my scalp, elbows, trickling down my arms, back of my thighs (so swollen it hurts to stand up because it throbs so badly) it’s on my one shoulder, chest, face, some on my butt. Anyways I’m now noticing my joints are super stiff and sore / swollen, my finger tips are swollen and firm (sore to the touch as well)

I did take benedryl about 2 hours ago, and using calahist lotion (seems to be doing okay but I’m still itchy and swollen all over) I have no idea what could be going on... I’m not allergic to anything that I’m aware of.

Here’s some pictures of the rash

The lumps and bumps are not cellulite... those are all hives and swelling I feel so gross and a lot of what is coming off of my body... I would take photos in better lighting but I can hardly get off the bed
