Sorry for posting about this again ... I have done the worst and googled, so now I am trying to stop myself in the process from continuing to google. I can't get over this:
Flat red blotchy rash that comes and goes ... usually with heat, stress, tight clothing but not always.
Shows up on my chest, arms, and legs ... most common is chest, forearms, and lower calves - which scares me, as lots with lymphoma say there was a rash on their lower legs.
Itchiness whether or not the rash is there.
Started with a virus a month ago, had cbc done and tested for rheumatic factors or w/e that means, doc didn't give me results but said the results led him to believe i had a virus.
I feel better but I still have this rash showing up and some itchiness everywhere. Why???
I have seasonal allergies, those have been bad the past few weeks, so taking benedryl in addition to my zyrtec but doesn't seem to be helping much. Also am allergic to everything in my home. Could it be an allergic reaction? There are no raised bumps though, flat and red only.
Ugh please if anybody can reassure me I just need to get through the weekend until my doctor's appointment on Monday. My fiance is so sick of me freaking out. I am convinced it is awful and can't get it out of my head.
