Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 yes this is how my daughters rash is. sometimes worse than others. I have found that Aveeno Calming Cream($13 a bottle!) really helps, even on her face. Good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Sam , Draw your sword and start swinging!! I hope that rash does'nt get your face!! The Dragon is breathing down your neck... keep us posted on the battle..... good luck Alan........ Rash Question Hello Stiil's Compadres, I have developed what I think is the Still's rash. In the past my symptoms tended to be more joint pain, with high fevers back at the onset. So, my rash runs up and down both arms, more on the inside than the out. It's always there, a light salmon color like the ones on the web site... then some days it flares up bright red. Is this how other peoples rashes behave? I see my rheumy tomorrow and will bring it up with him. Just thought I would check with y'all :-) Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Sam: Mine was birght red and all over the body except on face, hands and feet. Do not worry it is normal(if something in our disease can be called normal LOL). Greetings Sam Rocci escribió: Hello Stiil's Compadres, I have developed what I think is the Still's rash.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Yep,. sounds just like my stills rash. I can expect to see it every afternoon... getting more intense as the evening wears on. I " sleep it off " with just an overall, diffuse pink showing in the morning that disappears... Then in the afternoon, it starts all over again...

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 When my rash first appeared, it was on my arms. Like yours Light salmon color and more on the inside of my arms. Got darker, but never bright red. (the bright red is for my 'roid cheeks.) Lately, have it on my upper chest, comes and goes for the most part. Now, it seems to appear during the times of day when my fevers used to happen, even though I have not had that symptom since last summer. Very strange, like an internal clock. Comes on about 5:30-6PM and lasts till around 9PM. The large, run together area seems to get darker in color (never bright red) peaks and then starts to fade untl barely visible. Besides the big, almost butterfly shape area there are scattered spots most less than 1CM in diameter. Have pictures of the arms, but hard to see in chest pictures because of all the hair. Maybe I should shave? Whatcha think? LOL Tom from PA > > Hello Stiil's Compadres, > I have developed what I think is the Still's rash.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Sam, It sounds like the dreaded Still's Rash " to me & I've had a few of them! I always say my rash is behaving badly because it usually will cover most of my body from the neck down. Good luck at the doctor!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Hello all... I woke up with the rash all over me this morning. It is everywhere and seems to be spreading. I have had the rash before, but never all over like this. Also, pain in my legs & arms (esp. wrists), hands swollen and fingers. My doc's not in till this afternoon, anyone know what can help me until then? Does Benadryl help? I am miserable!

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Gail I hope you get to talk to the doctor soon. AFter calling the doctor, I would try to clear your schedule in order to rest. See what the symptoms do. I would only go as far as prednisone if you are quite ill. I have suffered several flares with no prednisone. The symptoms did go away for me.Of course the doctor knows best. I hope the doctor talks to you soon. Try to rest..sometimes only a few symptoms pop up...hopefully Let us know Hugs Liz ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Gail, I'm so sorry you have that terrible rash. I get it bad when I have a flare for some reason. My doctor always puts me on prednisone & it does help even though I hate it. He has me take pred. when I leave town even for a few days just in case so if I have a flare I can start taking it. I also take hydroxzine for the itching. I hope you can get ahold of your doctor soon so he can get you on something that will help. Take Care, Chris Gail wrote: Hello all...
