Can anyone assist me with any help in regards to my skin condition

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!

Thankyou for your response. I finally just got an appointment with my local hospital and they took a skin biopsy of my leg as my lower legs have been insanely itchy and that came back as atopic dermatitis. But the rash on my legs is different to what it originally was and to the rest of my body. I have an appointment with the hospital rheumatologist in 2 weeks. I also get alot of fluid retention in my body. The dermatologist at the hospital I feel was really dismissive and said just keep using the diprosone and see you in 4 months! I also have depression and anxiety.

Thankyou for your message and advice. Much appreciated.

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.

When you do research there are several versions of screening tests for psoriatic arthritis. You answer the questions and evolve a point total that suggests you have the diagnosis.
My results were positive and yet my first rheumatologist
gaslighted me as my psoriasis was so mild and controlled
with minimal involvement of my scalp and nails on steroids.
My present university rheumatologist did a very thorough
consult with ultrasound to make the right diagnosis.
There is no specific bloodwork for PsA but it helps exclude
other conditions.
The antibody medications for psoriatic arthritis improve your skin as well. The type of psoriasis flare caused by strep infections
is termed guttate psoriasis and could be mistaken for dermatitis. Hope your new rheumatologist gets you on a disease modifying drug. I would consider finding a dermatologist more interested in your case.
They will likely reassess your lupus antibodies but the facial
rash may be dermatitis related to the body eruption.
Psoriatic arthritis affects our bodies as a form of inflammation that needs ongoing management.
You have a good support community here and we are interested in your progress.

@michellesorbello13 that butterfly shaped rash on your face seems to suggest rosacea. You definitely need to see a good dermatologist. If one doesn’t solve your problem, ask for a referral to another, till you find one who solves your problem.

Thankyou so much for your understanding and your advice. It's much appreciated. I have an appointment with the rheumatologist this Thursday coming so fingers crossed he or she will listen to me and help me get some answers.
