  I’m sorry I don’t really remember

    This started on my upper arms and thighs and has suddenly and rapidly spread to the rest of the limbs, spread to my back and left boob and bottom, and up the front of my throat. I’d not heard of it before so I googled it and was shocked at how uncannily like my rash it is. I showed Mr P who said it basically looks exactly like it. I’ve got my specialist appointment on Thursday, so it’ll be interesting what they say. Looking into it though, there are a lot of similarities regarding the circumstances. I’ve been exposed to a lot of viruses in the past few months including covid, and I’ve been under a lot of stress for a prolonged period of time. I wondered how I can look like I’ve got 3 different types of rashes all at the same time on different parts of my body, which is what pictures I saw looks like on people; there’s the ones that look like circles (arms, legs and butt) the ones that look like flattish raised bumps (throat and some I’m legs) and the ones that look like a bright red prickle rash (rapidly spreading everywhere else there isn’t already a rash, filling in the spaces like I’m being coloured in lol).

      That might make sense as a viral reaction then. Definitely do make sure it isn’t anything infectious or serious though, I Am Not A Doctor.

      Mine was the classic ‘Christmas tree’ pattern and looked like this on my front but I did see pics of others where it was severe on their arms.

      As a rough idea:

      It did recur for me a second time months later, much milder and confined to my back.

      I still do get hives on my face, arms and lower legs. (Small hard white bumps that then swell up into areas of diffuse red puffiness.) That is a completely different thing and more likely from stress, allergies/sensitivities or MCAS

        Mine are like this, with the herald rashes in the centre of further outbreaks

        With the last one being how it looked in the very beginning. But I’m just waiting to see the specialist on this Thursday. Never seen a skin specialist before. My health problems have been mostly mental rather than physical lol.
