itchy raised rash with headaches and blurry vision
Posted: 02-01-08 12:31pm

I've gotten this horrible rash first on my hands and spread to other parts of my body. I went to one doctor who took a look at it, said it looks like insect bites and says well you have scabies, so she prescribes me some cream to get rid of the scabies. Seeing as I've had this rash for a little over a week and I'm the only one going through this is my house where there is 4 other people(my boyfriend, 2 daughters 9y.o and 8 months, and one son 7y.o) I find it hard to believe. So I went to another doctor, a few days later, who looks at it says she's not exactly sure what it is, she doubts it's scabies and sometimes you get rashes for reasons unknown and they just go away on their own. So she gives me a precription for Triamcinolone Acetonice cream and says if it doesn't go away in about 2 weeks to call a dermotologist and have them take a look. Which I do have an appt. for, Feb. 14th.
This rash has really begun to be a problem for me, it is very itchy, raised bumps that start to peel in the middle and has become painful. It's not only the rash that makes me think there is something wrong. I have also been getting headaches off and on, I had a problem with my right eye, it got blurry in the corner and had shining spots on both the top and bottom of the blur, I've been sleeping a lot. My periods have been irregular since november. Also, my bowel movements have increased, sometimes being nothing but water(sorry, gross I know.)
I feel like my body is trying to tell me something, but I have no clue what. Can anyone give me any type of direction to go as far as what it could be?

-Thanks in advance-

I think you should either go to the hospital or get a second opinion from another doctor, that doesn't sound good. And you definitely shouldn't be around that baby until you find out what it is, in case it's contagious!
