This sounds strange, but does anyone else get a small bubble-like rash on their bridge of their nose from your eyeglasses nosepad? Right where my rightside eyepad lands on my face every so often I get this bubble-like rash? It never ends with this disease!!!!

I can't say that I've had this but I have found that a product called Miracle II can help. I bought the sample pack and used the soap and lotion and my friend w/hep C used the neutralizer liquid on her scalf for itching and said it was the 1st relief she had gotten in weeks since it started.
I get it at the local vitiamin/natural store but you can google it and get it too. Good luck, I know that has to be irritating. Literally!

Me too...and I don't have lyme!!! I'm going to ask my doctor about the following:
"Q: I have developed what I believe is a sensitivity to silicone -- my skin reacts to nose pads on my glasses, the skin becomes red and eventually (if not treated) will develop a blister-like sore. I have tried the "hard" nose pads, but they also irritate, though not as severely as the soft pads. Is there a source for non-silicone nose pads? -- C.S., Canada
A: Great question! I asked Pat, one of our terrifically talented opticians. She said that vinyl nose pads are indeed available for people who are sensitive to silicone. She added that it is very likely your frame also needs to be readjusted to distribute its weight evenly, taking the pressure off your nose. She also pointed out that vinyl nose pads come in different sizes and shapes -- yours may need to be altered to fit you better."
I wonder if Miracle..by Merle Norman cosmetics...is similar. Vitamin A implications. In days of yesteryear...us "girls" used egg white applied to our face until it dried and then rinsed it off with cold water to help acne/pimples.
