Suggest Treatment For A Itching Caused By A Bug Sting

My name is AbbyGail I am 19yrs old and yesterday morning I was stung in the neck by some sort of bug I m not sure exactly what it was but it stung for a good 5 hours or so. Since then I have been itching more and more often! I used hydrocortisone butyrate lotion 0.1% on my palms and bottoms of my feet at 1:34pm today and I started feeling sick around 10am yesterday morning, a couple of hours after the sting. I still feel bad I have fibromyalgia and lately I ve been taking Gabapentin (Neurontin) 600mg twice a day for the pain and it just isn t working today and I can barely move and I have no appetite, which hasn t happened in many years since my heart failure at 14! I m a little concerned about my health because I thought I was doing better but now I m getting worse. I also take other medications such as, 2mg Prazosin once before bed, 150mg Sertraline (Zoloft) in the morning when I wake up, 50mg Vistaril 3 times a day morning noon and before bed, and 600mg in the morning and 900mg before bed of Trileptal. I m allergic to Celexa, Relenza, latex, Phenergan, oranges. I also was born with a low immune deficiency and Asthma! I have no insurance nor job(do to the fact that I get sick a lot and am an unreliable worker) Please Help me as much as you possibly can thank you.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Thanks for consulting in Healthcare . You have hypersensitivity to bugs bite,because you have allergy from childhood. It seems as allergic reaction from the bite of insect, that's why I prescribe you antiallergic medicine-allegra, it's modern and good helper in your situation. Don't apply cortisone ointment, because you don't have effect.Drink charkol 3 tab before night for cleaning your gastrointestinal tract from toxins and allergen. Eat hypoallergenic food-potato,cauliflower, cucumber, Dahi,panir,don't eat chocolate,honey,tomato soup and tomato subdgi,nuts,sushi,strawberries, flavor food,juice from market,chips
