This had happened twice in a year. I am 64 female. A mild fever 102 deg. F that lasts for 8 to 9 days and a rash develops in cheek , chest, back, thighs, shoulders during the 4th day. Fever goes off after 9 days. But rash and itching continues. Then desquamation (peeling of skin)  happens and it continues for close to a month. 

I had checked for malaria, typhoid, dengue, leptospirosis, tc dc, blood counts....everything is normal. So what fever is  this that had occured twice in a year. Pls help. On searching google, it says measles, rubella, rubeola, fifth disease etc., but all these are highlighted to be occurring for children.

After admitted in hospital, doctors closed the report quoting viral erythmatous fever?

What fever had happened to me with the only symptoms as 102 deg F for 9 days and a rash from the 4th day??
