Rash

[Lucinda]

For the last few weeks my legs have been so desperately itchy just from the knees down. Then today it started on my tummy and boobs and there is a rash.
Grrr.
Used to have awful dermatitis on my hands - hope I'm not getting that kind of thing again.

ooh how annoying. Is it hot and painful?

 

[Lucinda]

Just really itchy! Little red dots have come up on my tummy. I think i am allergic to this hospital.

 

[bevs]

are you stressed about anything?

 

[kellyandpiggies]

ooohh nasty, get them anae-what-do-you-call-its to rub some cream in!

 

[bevs]

I always use Eumovate cream, if I get stressed I get a rash on my elbows/forearms, but if I can get the cream on when I first feel the itch I can usually stop it.

Recently I have got it under my eyes, that's a pain cos if you scratch or rub they get very wrinkly (well i am 37!) so I have been patting it instead of scratching.

 

[Lucinda]

I guess it is a heat rash.
My skin is very white and I hate summer/ sun/ heat.
I have a cupboard full of steroid ointments from my dermatitis days but I don't like using them as ultimately they thin the skin and you're worse off!

 

[kellyandpiggies]

oh damn get one of the lovely guys to take a look!

 

[DebbieR]

It might be worth seeing the doc in case it is something new

 

[Lucinda]

I have an appt on Friday anyway so I will tell him then. My GP is lovely too - the only good one I have had at three surgeries!

 

[kellyandpiggies]

Hope it goes well lovey!
