Well, H - E - double hockey sticks

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, I know.  It's been a while.  So shoot me - PLEASE!  The Methysergide did the same thing as last time.  By Day 4, my shins/calves were swollen and red.  Discontinued the med, but the red didn't go away this time.  It kept getting worse.  The skin turned red and purpley-brownish, bruised and blistered looking.  This isn't a real good picture, but it gives you the general idea.

I went to the doc and what I have is called Static Dermatitis caused by a combination of my weight and the methysergide.  The Methysergide, coupled with excess fluid buildup/retention, have constricted the blood vessels causing insufficient circulation in my legs.  Blood is having a hard time flowing back up the veins in my legs and is seeping into the surrounding tisues.  Treatment is to elevate the legs above the heart as often as possible, a short course of a diuretic, some steroidal cream for the rash and itch and lose weight.  Yet another potentially harmful side effect of being a fat body like me.  On the plus side, my blood pressure even with everything going on and a shadow was only 127/72.  My last cholesterol check was something like 145.  I'm fairly healthy - I'm just fat.  The doc is going to help me work on that.
 
Thanks for the advice and concern, everyone.  Another lesson learned the hard way.
