been brave today

Today I had to visit my doctor for a biopsy from my upper arm. I've got a horrible rash on both arms and one foot no-one seems to know what it is. Anyway, biopsy done, one stitch and dressing, now wait 3 weeks for result.

Hi Majorcagirl,

Hope you get those results soon, and great that you were brave today to get it checked out.

Its just not knowing what has caused this awful rash.I have been told that it might be an allergic reaction to "something" very vague. Last week the doctor took skin scrapings, ugh. came back, no fungal infection, thats what led to the biopsy. results won't be back for three weeks.in the meantime I've yet another cream to apply.problem is, I've had dermatitis for over 50years, so itching is nothing new to me, but this is different.I've always been a very poor sleeper and now with this itching I'm lucky to get 2hours sleep continuosely so I'm shattered! I feel as though I've gone back 40years!

rant over :-)

I hope it goes ok. 🎖
