More information on "COVID Rash"

How interesting - I too had a rash on my back before tests were available - and I think I may have had COVID very early on. I traveled for work 3/9-12/2020, when we all thought just gloves and handwashing would keep us safe. Planes, airports, conference - and all in close contact. After I was tired, had a sore throat and runny nose and then the rash on my back that lasted for months. Your post makes me think that I did have COVID then, and that it was the second case confirmed w/ a test in March 2023 that resulted in the leg rashes. Thanks for confirming it. And yes, doctors are dismissive of so many symptoms even when we know our bodies best and have symptoms never before we had COVID.

My back rash was at the very end of a three week bout of Covid. I can’t actually remember how long
the rash lasted, and in the whole scheme of things it wasn’t as bad as the rest. I had aches, fever, headcold like symptoms with loss of taste and smell. The third week was intestinal with a siege of vomiting. When I felt I was on the mend, the rash developed. All-in-all I was sick about three weeks, though never felt like I should go to the hospital.
Six weeks later we flew to Hawaii and my ears went out. I have hearing loss and “clogged” feeling ears. Gradually more odd symptoms have developed. Blurry vision, dizziness and the splotchy rough patches we’ve discussed.
It’s a weird, weird condition. I have been under multiple doctor’s care for over two years with no answers.
