Has anyone experienced this. After about 6 - 7 weeks on Enbrel, I noticed a

non-itchy maculopapular rash on my arms and legs (in no way related to the

injection sites). It was a bit like a mild form of pityriasis rosea, if you

know what that is. The earlier lesions gradually faded and new ones came along;

they are about 0.5 cm (1/4 inch) in diameter. It is now 3 months since this all

started and I don't seem to be getting any new ones, but I can still see the

faded ones. As they fade they go a bit violet and scaly.

My rheumatologist said he was useless at dermatology but would be happy to refer

me to a dermatologist if they did not resolve. I have not yet taken him up on

this because they seem to be going away and are not causing me a problem, but I

would be very interested to know if anyone else has experienced this.
