Hi folks. I wonder if anyone can help me. I have been covered in a rash for around 6 months and have tried loads of creams etc but nothing is working. The rash is mainly on my legs and arms and it actually looks like chicken pox but its defo not that. Also over the last few weeks if I go a walk I feel really weak in the legs, its like I have walked for miles when I havent. The only way I can describe it is I had anaemia when I was pregnant and it feels like that. Also I have put on loads of weight and I am defo not eating the amount that would justify the weight gain. Can anyone advise? Could the skin rash, weakness and weight gain be connected? The itch at night is driving me insane, antihistamines dont remotely work. Can someone please give me some advice. Thanks.
