Guest guest Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hi Bee, Everyone, Ok, so I will probably sound abit like a big kid here, but I'm kinda freaked out at the moment. Even though I have had four children of my own, and you would think that I would be well experienced in this kind of thing by now..... But anyways, a few days ago, I came down with a horrible cold that made me dizzy, terrible chest congestion, and over all wiped out. Well I have been taking about 4000mg a day of Vitamin C trying to knock it out of me quickly, and drinking a ton of fluids, and I started feeling better today. Anyway, I went to go take my usual Epsom Salt Bath today, and noticed that I have a rash on both of my arms on the inside of the elbow, you know like the place where they usually take blood at. They are pinkish red, just slightly raised, and only itches a little bit. But I have no idea why I have this rash. I don't ever get rashes???? I mean seriously like never. I've never been allergic to anything my entire life, not foods, not the woods, not meds.... Which I'm not taking any medicines out of the normal. I havent eaten anything that is new or strange to me. My left arm is worse then my right arm as far as the rash is concerned. I'm not running a fever, and I don't have the rash anywhere else on me. Sooo, I was wondering if any of you have suffered with anything similar with your Fibromyalgia or could you possibly know what is going on with me. I would appreciate any input on this, as I tend to worry about things. I don't want to go to the German hospital because they will try to keep me over night, and I'm not willing to stay the night over a rash on my arms. Not unless I start with a fever..... My first thought was could it possibly be a heat rash? But found the idea of that being odd beings we are in the middle of winter and its really not that hot in my house. Plus after the bath, hours later, its still there just as bad as earlier. Hopefully one of you guys will know what is going on with me.
