Hi am really sorry to hear about your daughter especially at such a young age.

Definitely agree with twitchylet to get a referral ASAP.

But have you tried applying suncream? My lupus rash came but I also became photosensitive at the same time. Might be worth a try while you wait for a referral? I have to use a factor 50 which is uva and uvb protection and apply continuously through out the day weather am inside or out.
