Hey, Lady! I am not ignoring you. I'm just in a low period and preoccupied with the taxes and the long-delayed refinance on my house. My energy is running low right this minute and I promise I will get to you and the forum to answer some stuff.
You got great info on the rash. I won't be able to help there.
But, for anyone that gets any kind of visible symptom, a rash, a tremor, a big jerk (doesn't count last night's blind date), try to get pictures of it!! IF it is a movment thing get a video of it. Pictures and videos can tell doctors volumes!!
Be back later, Q
Thank you all for taking the time to help me.
I know the Neuro did do alot of blood work and so when I go back hopefully i'll get the answeres. I'm having a hard time just WAITING,, you know?
I havent started any new meds, so I know its not that.
Its gone know it just was another weired symptom, another to add to the list lol
anyway i'm so exhausted
later

are you on any new meds? many meds cause reactions to sunlight while on them, they make you super sensitive,so be careful okay.a call to the doctors,is never a bad idea,remember you are worth feeling safe,and that should be your doctors job.
My son in law has Lupus and has such rashes whenever he is out in the sun. What you sound like you had might have been a reaction to some chemical. Was there any weed killer or such on the grass that you sat on?
Believe it or not, I am allergic to freshly mowed grass. If I sit down in it, I get an immediate rash. If the grass has NOT been recently mowed, I can sit on it all day. I have had this since I was a litlle kid. Doctor's could never find out exactly what was in the freshly mowed grass that made me get the rash.
Here I am 54 years old and it's still a puzzle.

Lupus with that sun-sensitive rash. Let's see what your ANA and sed are. And Ada's right (of course). Call your doc right away about the rash.

Kidney Involvement (50 percent)

It can cause serious complications. Please call your doctor about the rash with the sun.

what do ya think?
Thank you again Ada Your so kind It means alot to me
Hi Sweetie! Ok, I have a question about the rash, was it flat or bumpy, was it all over or just in a certain area on your leg? Was it red, salmon color or pink? Have you had an RF, ANA, sed rate test? On my profile I uploaded pictures of the rash I have with the Still's disease, if you get a chance look at them and see if it is similar to what your legs do in the sun.
Many Hugs,
Ada
