RA and rashes

[Sapphire1701]

hi, I’m just wondering if you can get rashes with RA..

I’ve developed a few patches of small rashes possibly a bit like hives, though one is a circular rash (which aware could be ringworm but don’t think it is).. also aware these may just be fungal rashes.

we have lupus in the family and although I was tested my titer was in the range for lupus but my consultant said that was common with RA.

im not overly concerned just wondering if these rashes are linked to autoimmune or something totally different!

I got drug induced Eczema with Abatercept. When stopped it went but looked like red circular areas and really itched. Very unpleasant.

I had a reaction to adalimumab. Rashes on my legs and trunk. They said it might be fungal but it didn't improve with antifungal cream. They took me off it and I went on etanercept which was fine.

Ah I started on Adalimumab 3 months ago so I guess could be that!

Thank you
