Guest guest Posted December 28, 2001 Report Share Posted December 28, 2001 .. I do have some weird rash/bumps on my checks which do itch on and off. It was just a solid butterfly kind of rash when he saw it and he said it couldn't be the lupus rash because it wasn't raised Em, I would find a new doctor a soon as can. You have a butterfly rash and that should be enough to have your doctor do more tests Glad you're back. Take care, Irene Books may well be the only true magic Alice Hoffman.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2001 Report Share Posted December 28, 2001 - Hi! I have a very itchy rash-zitty kinda thing on my face. It itches and flakes and is red- the more I wash it the redder it gets. I have small pores and my face, ears and neck break out in infected bumps that really are not like pimles. They itch also. I'm going to try to get a referral to a dermotologist in Jan. to find out what it is. -- In @y..., " Anne Scarborough " wrote: > I've noticed that I have dry patches in different parts of my body...they are very small and kinda round. I also have had very very very oily skin all my life and now my skin is so dry it doesn't matter how much moisturizer I use. I only was my face 2-3x a week or it turns really red. I don't know if one of my meds is drying my skin out or if it's age (36) or fibro or some other weirdo thing. I've decided I'm the Queen of the Phantom Illness. Always have symptoms but nothing that is causing them. Makes me crazy! > > Anne > Re: I'm baaaack > > > > > janissa@o... wrote: > > Another question: Do any of you ever have any trouble with dermatitis, > > rashes, things like that?
