Hello

Very thankful to find this group. I am still waiting on my official diagnosis but I feel like I have finally figured it out with this group.

My question is did anybody's herald patch weep? I have three potentially. One on my inner upper arm and two on my thigh. They have been very itchy in the past and now they sting and weep. I am wondering if it is because I have scratched them to the point of infection?

Like everyone else I am going completely nuts and have tried everything to figure out what this is. The closest thing I came to before discovering PR was a gluten/celiac rash. But the herald patch and it's timing is what seems to set it apart.

I recently had surgery to remove my gallbladder and was very stressed leading up to it. The first patch reared it's ugly head about a week before my surgery. It is difficult to know which symptoms went along with the impending rash because I felt like crap after surgery.

thanks for any insight! i am very curious to see what the DR. says with the tests they took.

Jen
