Something new ..... I think I'd better try to see my doctor tomorrow. After 2 weeks of dealing with this thing, and now finally reading about it and seeing pictures of it, I think I have Cat Scratch Disease. I took one of my cats to the Vet. 2 weeks ago - he's huge - 18 lb, so I wrap him up like a burrito. He wiggled out, scratched me on my right arm, right leg and upper left arm. The upper left arm formed a bump which looked sort of like a pimple. I tried to clean it out and it bled and bled .... this went on for about 5 days .... then I left it open at night to dry, same thing. Now it's the same, a little over 1/8" round blood blister looking thing, surrounded by a pale red ring. I'm going to go see my doctor tomorrow and if I can't get in I'll go to Med. Express except you have to pay outright in full at the time.
If it's not one thing it's another.

@amberpep Gosh, seems like it's just such a tumble of things going on right now, doesn't it? I hope you can get in to see your doctor tomorrow and that they can get to the bottom of that. Cat scratch fever is nothing to sneeze at! Let us know what happens.

Yes, please take care of that, and be well.

Sounds like something to not fool with. Take care of yourself. Let us know how it goes.
