Hope everyone is feeling well today. Soooo.....yesterday I woke up and found this lovely shade of red on my stomach, chest, arms, legs and back. It does itch if I touch it. I started Plaquenil about a month ago. I have been feeling good but now this sprouts up! Any ideas if this is related to Lupus?
Love to u all!

Much more likely to be the Plaquenil and you really should contact your doctor and get it checked. Rash can be a sign of an allergic reaction - so far better to be safe than sorry.
We couldn't say whether this rash could be caused by your lupus or not, but as PMRpro has suggested it would be best to go to your doctor incase this is a reaction to your treatment.
