Anyone have small, red spots all over that itch like mad? I have a tone of these small, hard pimply looking things on my arms and back. Some on my legs too. I cannot stop itching, which only makes it worse. Anyone been able to get this sort of thing under control? How?

These may not be related to lyme at all.

Try figuring it out by using this website:

If that doesn't work, and if I were itching that much, I'd be making an appointment with a dermatologist who will likely know immediately what is going on.

In the mean time, you can take Benadryl every few hours to help with the itching. You may need to get a few pills into your system before they really help the itching.
