SKIN RASH

Hi all

For a while now I keep getting a skin rash or rather big lumps, that look like a nettle rash on my chest very high up and they go onto my neck/throat area.

They are quiet large and in clusters and look very angry, all red and swollen, like most CM symptoms they come and go, have taken anti-histamine to help and they dont.

Just curious really to know if anybody else out there gets this and if you think it CM related, it not on my symptom list yet, but guess I will put it on if you guys out there think it is relevant.

Thanks

Hi....it may not be directly a CM issue, but it may be related in a round about ways.

One thing I have learned in dealing with chiari and it's symptoms....is we can develop allergies at ne time.....I used to wear a necklace and would get a rash like u mention.....I was never sure y I started having this issue, but if u wear a necklace try not wearing it for a while and see if that helps.

hi selma thanks for advice, dont really wear necklaces or havn't for a few months anyway, will just keep eye on it and mention it at my appointment if i remember on 25th,

Guess it worried me as no lupus symptoms can include skin rash but have had all bloods done so this rules lupus out.

Oh I do know....and even meds can give us issues even if we were ok with them b4......we can find  nething we use, deodorant, or even something we eat may begin to affect us...and we may not even be aware.....laundry detergent.....etc.....

Keep a record of what u use or take and when the rash flares...see if u can find a common denominator.
