Hi All,

Is it typical to have subsequent rashes after EM rash? I have recently developed minor, itchy rashes on my wrists and arms. I have been on abx for about 1 1/2 months now. I appreciate any and all feedback.

All I can tell you is I had different types of rashes for over three years. Still get them every once in a while but, not as bad.

Mostly on my stomach but, also legs, arms etc.

I never had a rash in my life, till Lyme. I've had three biopsies, nothing ever showed up, and creams never helped.

Everything I say is just my opinion!

Please be aware of an allergic reaction... and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever... and Ehrlichiosis.

They can all cause itchy rashes.

PLUS... unless they do "speciality tests" after the sample is taken (biopsy)... they are doing "routine" tests and nothing will show up if it is Lyme or another TBD.
