yo me broté después de tomar amoxicilina con acido clavunaico para la fuerte molestia de garganta que se me presentó antes y la dra que me tomó la biopsia me dijo que ese brote solo en piernas y brazos solamente era muy típica de intoxicación por medicamento. pero también se me hinchan las articulaciones
me hicieron examenes de SIDA (negativo) hepatitis (negativo) reumatismo y artritis (negativo) ecografias de abdomen y demas organos (todo bien) los leucocitos si elevados. ANAS y ENAS negativos
siempre he sido muy saludable, nunca me enfermaba, tengo un niño de 4 años y otro hijo de 19 todo muy bien con ellos y los embarazos normales. hasta agosto 2023 que me enfermé con esa erupción leve y en enero 2024 como en las fotos. terrible
no comas mucho tomate eso me hinchó el codo esta semana. igual sigo buscando médicos que me ayuden y cualquier cosa te voy contando. si quieres me escribes
espero que mejores pronto
I feel your pain…I’ve been there. I was diagnosed itch Rheumatoid arthritis when I was 49, after many years of doctors telling me I had nothing wrong with me.
You are correct in stating that you know when something is not right with your body.
I speak only from my own experience, with my own body , when I say, I too had similar conditions.
What I have discovered, is that an autoimmune condition can change and become more complicated with age. I am now 76 years old and suffer from many additional autoimmune conditions. In addition to RA, I have Lupus (diagnosed in 2019), Fibromyalgia (2020), Atopic dermatitis /Eczema (2023). Although, Evzema is not considered an autoimmune condition, it often accompanies one. I suffer from dry eyes, dry mouth (Sturgeons Disease), and beginning stages of Dupuytrans Contracture.
Unfortunately, the butterfly rash is a typical sign of Lupus.
In my opinion only, I firmly believe you need a good Rheumatologist who will listen to you and work with you to improve your quality of life. There are many issues involved and some of them become as frustrated as you are and develope an indifference to your concerns…learn as much as you can about autoimmune disease so you can inform your doctors on signs and symptoms…my eczema started with my legs covered in bumps and uncontrolled itching. I was told I had a fungus infection, put on three different medications that did little to nothing before a dermotologist quickly landed on Atopic Dermatitis/Eczama and still was told to buy over-the-counter creams which did not control the condition which by then started on my face, neck, under my breasts, my feet, etc…
Finally a physician’s assistant prescribed Clobetasol Propionate Cream USP, 0.05% (Emollient).
Good luck but stay informed and insist on better care.
I’m so very sorry I wish you could find other doctors. I’m terrible sorry I thought my autoimmune issues were bad the fatigue is awful and very hard for others to understand. The skin and dryness is awful. But you are young and I’m so sorry you’re struggling with all of this. I will keep you in my thoughts and hope you find a more supportive medical team at a major hospital that will help you!!! I’m so sorry. I have Sjogrens, Raynard’s, Small Fiber z neuropathy and Scleroderma, terrible fatigue and brain fog. I’m feeling depressed about it also but have a team of wonderful doctors at Mayo. I’m so sorry keep searching for a Doctor that understands. So sorry!
