the funk

So life is interesting
I have armpit issues
Or rather my armpits have issues
It's been on and off again since grad school 
Roughly 5 years
I left traditional deodorant last year
I was getting bumps and burning
Shaving was next to impossible 
If wearing deodorant was required within a few days
So I started using Oyin Funk Butter
And it was glorious for 3 weeks to a month than the bumps came back
So I stopped they went away  and started again
And since that point its been randomness
At this moment I have hair, scabs, bumps, blisters, peeling skin, and an intense desire to furiously scratch under my arms. 
I haven't shaved my armpits since maybe November
Horrific I know but what's a girl to do suffer or be hairy
So for the past 2 weeks I haven't worn any deodorant at all
Scandaless I know but what can I do suffer or possibly stink
(It actually wasn't that bad smellwise. Only once was I like um yeah showertime.)
But realizing that I was getting to this point helped me pick up the phone
So I have a doctor's appointment today to end this foolishness


I just saw this article about alternative deodorants
But why oh why do they cost so much
