blotchiness

this blotchy rash has been lurking on me since March. It doesn’t itch or hurt, it can flare up and down, but always there is a ‘shadow’ of where it’s been. Antihistamines can reduce it, but not 100%.I haven’t changed any products. The skin can be slightly raised and looks dry. I have asked if it’s connected to my ET and told it is not. However, I’m just wondering if others have had this problem.

Ps I am currently only on Aspirin 75mgs (18 years) and Atorvastatin 20mgs (2years)

That looks like a rash similar to what I occasionally get with Besremi. I believe Atorvastatin can also cause rashes as a side effect. We can , of course, get rashes for other reasons.

Suggest you consult with the doc who proscribes the statin and.or consult a dermatologist.

Thank you Hunter, I’m very suspicious of the statin as well…I will investigate some more.

Yes I have the tiresome blothiness. Doesn't hurt, looks unattractive. Haven't asked doctor. Am going through a time of feeling a bit low!
