2 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoDo I have an allergic reaction to an ingredient of Sour Skittles? Details inside...?
I think I have an Allergy to something in Sour Skittles. Here's why.
I brought a packet of Sour Skittles to school one day. During science, I eat a few, around 5. A few minutes later, the skin on my throat gets itchy. I scratch it alot, but I stop, knowing it will pass, and the itchy feeling passed.
I go to Gym, and while changing into uniforms, I eat about 8 more. When heading into the Gym, my throat has the same feeling as it did in Science- just a moderate itchy feeling. My gym teacher tells me to put cold water on it and let it air dry. I do so, and stop scratching it, and the feeling goes away once more.
After eating a school lunch of a chicken patty, grape juice, potato wedges, and a chocolate eclair, I eat the rest of the Sour Skittles-about 13 or so of them. When walking to my next class, Reading, the itching sensation comes back-but this time, it is worse. I would rate it a 7.5 on a berable scale, one being extremely berable, 10 being TOTALLY unberable.
While in the Reading room before class, I itch it a little, but I bravely stopped itching, knowing that the sooner I stopped itching it, the sooner it will go away. It did, after a few minutes of torturing me! My eyes were almost watering at this point.
A few minutes ago, I ate dinner. When I was chewing, I felt something weird on my tounge. I went to the bathroom, and looked in the mirror. To my surprise, I had these bumps on the back of my tounge, almost down in my throat. They don't hurt, but I feel them while chewing. Does anyone know what this may be?

2 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoMy Wii's WIRED INTERNET has stopped working! Help?
Be prepared for a lenghty description of my problem! Thanks for helping me :)
Because my dad is old school, he doesn't like Wireless Lan connections. ;) So, we brought a $20 Datel lan adapter at Best Buy. We tested it out, and it worked perfectly. We hooked up a simple internet cable (that ran straight from the Wii to the gateway, it was one solid wire going from one room to another.) to a Actiontec DSL Gateway.
Weeks later, my dad decides to fish the cable through a wall in the room the Wii is in, up to the attic, and down a wall to the room that the gateway is in. When the wire hits a wall, it plugs into a jack-thingy to go through. (I though that would be important, it might be causing the no internet problem.)
We test out the internet, and it DOESN'T WORK. The light on the LAN adapter is flashing, but very dimly. So, we try it again and again, to no avail. We try the official nintendo lan adapter, and that doesn't work either.
My dad contacted Nintendo's support hotline, and they say our gateway might be the problem. However, keep in mind that this gateway worked PERFECTLY before! We try other backup gateways, to no avail. :(
Now i think about it, we had a power surge one day a few weeks ago when the wii was on standby and connected to the internet on Wiiconeect 24. The overhead lights dimmed for a second, and the digital TV we get from antenna changed channels mysteriously! I think that might've messed with the Wii's hardware permanantely, because we never got the Wii on the internet after that day. However, I didn't try the Wii on the internet that day, so I wouldn't know if the surge was the main problem.
I'm very pissed at this issue, because this has stopped me from brawling with my friends for weeks. Does anyone else have this problem? More importantly, does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks so much for helping out!
