Yes, I get this type of rash on neck, chest, back, sometimes arms, also when I’m starting with sinusitis or virus, every 4-6 weeks. I do t get it as often or as bad since I started taking Hydroxychloriquine

Yes!! I get this a lot!! Especially over the tops of my legs and bottom. Feels as if it’s burning when you pull anything over it. Until steroids it has been frequent and extreme. Now my rashes are much more controlled. Only getting bad on my face. Occasionally on my thigh and arms. It was usually the first marker I was about to flare...

Could i ask what the drs said it was or what it was related too

Yes of course. I’ve beeb diagnosed with undifferentiated connective tissue disorder. My bloods are boarderline for Lupus so having further investigation as my original diagnosis was SLE. My body hasn’t been able to cope under different stresses mainly hot and cold. Also sunlight (this isn’t as strong though). When I first started getting the rashes I wrongly assumed I was having allergic reactions to things after medications didn’t work; then when they would appear I’d begin to feel very fatigued (flu like) and joints would swell as time has gone on they have eased a little. I noticed when I stress I can amost feel it coming over my face. I have made big changes to my diet, added multivitamins, cod liver oil and glucocemine. I have been off steroids 7 days now and still minimal rashes to my legs and bum. Face always seems to flare now. I’m not sure if it’s because it’s more exposed. Im learning as I go along! xx
