Skin rash and pain

Hi, I just joined to find out why my Left upper chest is breaking out in a painful red rash. I’ve have had peripheral neuropathy due to breast cancer radiation in 1999, it was mild in 2005, now full on. I had rash’s on my back last year, now chest. Starts with those “Bee Stings”, then deep itching, it’s moving up towards neck. I would like to be in a conversation to understand and help what’s happening. I cannot be on any Gabapentan variable. Thank you.

Hello @robin0613, Welcome to Connect. It sounds like the rash you are describing is very painful similar to hives. There are a couple of discussions that you might find helpful and be able to learn what others with similar symptoms have shared.

Have you discussed the rash with your doctor or a dermatologist?
