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.
