Spots

[Graham612]

Hi

My name is Graham i am 55 and was diagnosed with MSA C about 4 years ago. I have been reading this forum for quite some time but have never posted anything. I know that everyones journey is different. I am down the same path like most. I was just wondering if anybody else gets boil-like spots over their body mainly on the front.

Regards Graham

welcome Graham to a group that no one wants to be a part of but is so informative and supportive, all the same. I’m sorry you received a diagnosis at a young age. I, too, was diagnosed at 52. I cannot help regarding advice but thought I’d reach out. X

GrahamWelcome and glad you're reaching out and finding the posts useful.

I've not seen and posted about spots before and not something my wife has encountered either.

It may be related to something else such as a reaction to a medication or food? Check with your GP I would suggest.

my husband developed a skin condition called Bullus Pemphygoid whilst he was also journeying with his MSA c. It’s a blistering rash which became very bad and had to be treated with medication and steroids. I know that a few other MSA sufferers have also had it.

I hope that it’s not that for your situation, but I thought that it was worth mentioning!

my dad used to get red spots on his arms , but seemed to be worse if he went in the sun , which he loved , so he had to cover up
