Guest guest Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 Hi gang, Aundrea is getting this strange rash all day. I will try to post pictures. Basically she gets this red flat area and then there is a slightly raised areas which appears to be a like a mosiquito bite although some areas are more like a quarter in diameter. Other sections are completely red like a sunburn...her upperback looks burned. Her hips and rib cage and under arms have the raised blisters in addition to the red flat rash. She has been on Zithromax for 4 days for treatment of pneumonia. She ran a fever of 102-103 for 7 days..spiked in afternoons and had night sweats, slight sore throat, coughing and headache. She is also taking a cough med with hydrocodone. Benadryl relieved the itching and the rash cleared up this morning. 8 hours later it returned again. She is also having nightly joint pain, primarily in ankles. Prior to the pneumonia diagnosis she had been sick about 3 weeks before with a cold. So, any ideas on what might be going on. I don't know if this is systemic in nature or maybe a reaction to the antibiotic. Of course it's christmas day so my plan is to go back to urgent care tomorrow. Just wondered if anyone else might have an idea as to what could be going on. (aundrea 12 systemic jra/gerd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
