Default same rash
Joan... I'm so glad I saw your post. I've had the very same problem. My rsd is in my left leg but I keep getting a rash on my upper chest and under my arms. The doctor can't figure it out. I was so desperate that I stopped my meds for a while but it didn't make a difference. I don't think its related to the meds. The only other thing I have wrong with me is the rsd...it has to be that. I haven't found anything that makes it go away...it just seems to do it's own thing. Hope you're finding some relief...Take care.

I Have Always Just Assumed The Rash Was From The Rsd, And Again I Get To Say .... There Is Nothing We Can Do To Fix It! Ha! It Seems That Is The Answer For All The Rsd Problems. Mine Comes And Goes For No Particular Reason And Feels Hot But Does Not Itch. So Be It ....
Whoops Sorry If I Offeneded But I Typed In Capitals Again, It Is A Habit But I Am Too Tired To Redo It .... Joan

What you are describing sound like RSD blisters. I had em same as you - different places on my body but not on one nerve so it wasn't shingles but looked simlar.

do a google search on rsd blisters and you should be able to find some pictures.

Mine were diagnosed by Dr. Daniel Carr who was an RSD researcher as well as a respected RSD doctor, so I believe that his diagnosis was correct( for that anyways)

I only got them once but one of them left a scar on my face of a tiny red dot for the longest time. It's still visible, but very faint.

Peace and hope,
Lisa

They were small like a little burn, with clear fluid. They would itch for a bit, and burn and sting. Then the fluid would release and they would heal. But I was extremely careful not to scratch. They seem to have calmed now... I hope it stays as such.

Anyone had this happen to them with RSD?

Hugs,

are they black and red?

because they are annoying and are going through a cultural and racist labelling issue... maybe it's late teenage rebellion?? my feet are trying to develop their own cultural identity?

or maybe they are trying to hint at all the film roles I could get with dead legs (just think, everytime the heroine dies there could be a shot of dead legs and feet).

sorry, only pulling your leg

hope your eye is doing better!!!!! Froggaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
