Guest guest Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hi Rhonda! I had the rash at first, it was so not fun trying to find a new job when i was red and shedding skin worse than the cats. This was the first clue for me looking back that I had lupus and started questioning my docs. It was treated with steriods and went away pretty quick. Luckily i haven't had it again on my face, i have a rash instead on my chest, right in the dinner catcher area as my mom calls it. it's still there no matter what it is treated with and has gone to under one arm and my toes (go figure??) I finally figured out some relief for the itchiness of it with a vitamin E body oil but it doesn't make it go away. I hope you don't get the rash or any other for that fact!
