Anyone had one and think they got a allergic reaction to the dye?
I had it done on Monday and on Tuesday I had a hive rash and itching on my wrists which subsided after a hour or two.
I was fine yesterday then this morning I started getting very itchy soles of the get and slight burning, top of foot itchy and palms of hands very itchy and burning, wrist the same.
Went away after a hour or two and came back again 5pm today and only easing off calming down now so anyone else get this?
Anything I can put on the itch?

@Itonlytakesone I hope you are feeling much better this evening. I was told that warm drinks would help to flush everything through your system. Good luck with your results too.
