Eczema
So according to the dermatologist I saw yesterday my bumpy blistery rashes I get is Eczema. I kinda knew that already because the doc I had in CA suspected that, but she never had me refered to a dermatologist so I never knew for sure.
Yup, I know... such a boring post. But now I have another diagnosed condition to take to the net.
I could have kicked myself too because when she was asking me about my medical history she asked if my rhumatologist had thought my auto-immune disorder might be a particular one, but I forgot the name she mentioned so I can't look it up or ask my rhumatologist about it. In anycase, I do still need to tell her about the rashes. I got them after I last saw her. It was like nothing I've evern had before either. Basically Christmas morning my wrists and arms felt like they had a very dry suburn, but I hadn't been out in the sun (like there had been any then either.) and then a few days later all these pinhead sized watery blisters popped up all over where my skin was all red. It really seemed like a sunburn without sun. As the sores dried up my skin has just become dry and scaley, and now it's almost all clear again. I'm glad she took me seriously because at first glance my arms look normal again.
Anywho, so yet another medical lable put on my files. I'm really starting to get fed up with all this.
