When I was about 12 I got this weird rash; my doc had a big book of rashes (ew) and he diagnosed me with something …. I can’t remember the name of it now, but something that occurs in some pubescent girls. It covers the upper half of the body ususally (in my case, it was all over) and it looks exactly like ringworm, only they are solid circles and not just rings. And they itched! Caused by a virus, the only thing you can do is try to control the itch and wait until it runs its course. I was miserable for weeks. I even got them on my face at the end, and my fellow middle schoolers avoided me, claiming I had the chicken pox. That’s the only rash story I have. :)

Hope yours can be solved!

I’m the queen of ‘unexplained’ rashes. We think they are caused by bug bites, but my doctor has never seen anything like them before. Nice to hear your doctor say “Oh wow!”
