Hi there,

Just thought of this randomly as it only happened one time about ten years ago to me. Definitely not a raised surface at all. Absolutely zero itching or pain to it. Mine was located on the back just lateral of the spine kind of near the scapula. I was living in Colorado at the time and no other symptoms no recent illness that I can remember. Such an usunaual phenomenon. Mine had a bit of an s pattern to it. I believe this picture was a day after it first appeared and it stayed there for about a week before disappearing. This would have been around 2011. The only thing I can think of is that I was performing a CT scan around the time of the incident (I am a little too fuzzy on the details 10 years later.) as a Technologist. I was injecting a patient with contrast and the scan actually started taking images without me realizing it. It would have placed that part of my body directly in contact with the gantry tube however plenty of patients have had contact with gantry rubes and not had this type of marking, but it may have been in contact to my back for around 2 seconds at most. I just think it is highly unlikely this was a radiation burn as I never experienced any pain and the back is a fairly sensitive area. I didn't even notice it but my girlfriend had pointed it out to me. I slept with my shirt off but no memory foam mattress at the time.

I am hesitant to think its autoimmune simply because the vessels in your skin dont follow a grid pattern, it really seems to be an external source rarhet than internal? Too much symmtrey when vessles, tissue and lymphnodes dont have this symmytrey but Im no doctor. I did some research back then and it appears a decade later and no real answer other than alien abductions haha. For what it's worth I have always had strange dreams about aliens but never about being abducted😄👽
