Ok so this morning i was diagnosed with PR, after finding a herald spot on the bottom of my stomache 2 days ago (thought nothing of it at time), then on inspection of my body this morning i noticed 3 marks on my side, about 7 on my chest and one below my belly button, so thats why i called my doctor and she diagnosed PR- However she did not tell me much and after reading ur comments im a little freaked out now!!

Anyway to get to the point i have added links/pics to show u what it looks like incase some ppl are not sure of there diagnosis- however i would recommend that you see your GP to get a diagnosis and not just got off my pictures as everyone is different.

[b:353febcdbd]I will also keep u updated with more pics/progress as i go alongsmile[/b:353febcdbd]

    I wonder has this been referred for moderation because the pics are racy, or because pics of the rash would upset us more than our own patches!? V odd!

    Yes it was passed to moderators, however for you to find the picture racy is very odd to me, as nothing is on show, its just my skin and too be honest its just showing people who also suffer with this not to be too down about it, so i think it outweighs the bad.

    Plus where you say it will make people more down, well if you google PR many pictures actually come up that are ALOT worse than mine so i doubt mine will cause any harmsmile

    Good morning emzygirl

    All posts with images are alerted for moderation whatever the subject matter, this is to stop spammers posting ad hoc images onto our site.

    Your pictures were not at all racy but I was wondering if it would please be possible for you to resize them as they were very large and people can't read your experience as it goes across the site bar.

    Regards

    Lin

    Lol I didn't mean I thought they *were* racy - you couldn't see anything except a message saying it'd been referred when I posted that. I agree with you, pics are a good idea and make it easier to figure out if this is what you've got! I was just jesting that I wondered why pics of the very illness we've all got needed to be moderated since that's the only reason we're all here! Anyway, hope yours are beginning to recede a bit now, mine have eventually started to fade, but still itch! X
