Hi. I get a rash of red pinprick dots all over the bottom of my legs and ankles which can last for a few weeks ...it comes and goes. It doesn't itch though. I showed my GP and she doesn't know what it is and neither did my heamotologist who said you can get a rash if your platelets are low but mine aren't ....I tend to ignore it now . Best wishes Pippa

Hi, I often get rashes on my lower legs ankles and thighs. I found out from the consultant that they are heat induced vasculitis. This is where the smaller arteries near the surface become inflamed and irritated. So for me personally I always try and stay on the cool side. It might be worth looking into for yourself. George

You should do liver cleanse once a month for 8-10 times. Check for Moritz miracle cleanse. And it's possible you're ET will disappear

I have ET Calr. I don’t suffer from rashes. I do get headaches but I won’t say they are ET related although I’m of the understanding that headaches are a symptom.

Maybe it’s worth asking your heamo.

Good luck
