I am so sick and tired of this body rash that no one seems to know what it is since my blood work came back NEGATIVE for Lupus..... not that I wanted to have Lupus on top of everything else, but at least the doctors would of known what it was and how to treat it.

The reason I am starting to hate my rash...... it that after about 4 months of it just being an eye sore when it broke out all over me - it is now so ITCHY and the itch travels all over my body..... no limit to it where it goes and I have to scratch so much to get it to stop (for the moment) that I am now breaking skin with a pre bruising look on my skin.

I have RA and was Dx with Rosacea on my face when the Dermatologist examined me in January.... she was the one that said I might have Lupus once she saw the red flat blotchy rash all over me. But now what.... no Lupus and no reason for the rash, and I am growing tired of doctors that cannot find out WHY.

... with in the last month I have been given the Dx of Rosacea and TMJ - but nothing for my irritating rash. My Dermatologist says that if the rash was due to an allergic reaction to something then when I pull on the skin the redness would vanish.... but if you tug on the skin and the skin is still red then it is due to some thing else, some thing from within.

Any Ideals........................... Any Helpful Advice? - and no it is not due to an allergy or allergic reaction.

Thanks...
