Has anyone else started a red dot with MAI meds?

@roslynroslyn At the emergency department, the triage nurse will determine severity. Given what you've described it sounds serious, especially if it's vasculitis, as described above. You don't need anymore problems than you already have! Let someone at least take a look at you. You can always leave. ED's ebb and flow -- they are not always as busy as we remember. Wear a mask and something to read or do in case you have a small wait. Keep us posted! We are all worried for you!

@scoop I am at hospital now. Waiting for 4 hours so far.

@roslynroslyn got home at 4:50 am. Emergency dr ordered specialized blood test and told me to come back this am. I’m here now to see allergist and allergy/ immunologist. Will be a long morning 😟but I’m happy they coordinated everything.
Thank you all☺️

@roslynroslyn Sorry to hear about the long night but relieved to know you’re getting medical attention. Will you keep your Thursday appointment with ID doc?

Thanks for keeping us posted. By documenting and sharing your experience, you’ve done a great service to others here who may have similar side effects from meds.

WOW! What a relief your daughter joined you. That’s some rash. So glad you are getting it checked out. Hope you get some answers soon.

I was on rifampin, azithromycin, and ethambutol for Mac. after a month( i developed pinpoint rash(petechiae). they found my ptt labs were out of whack and took me off rifampin. rash went away and i continued on other two drugs for a little over a year with little problem.
