Do you have Bartonella? I know it can cause all kinds of "skin" eruptions, thickening, splotching, "stretch marks and more. Do these look anything like little, tiny red dot (similar to a very light colored blood blister) that is Bart too.

It was the only thing for me that rang a bell reading your post.

Be sure to ask your LLMD.

If it is something you think could disappear quickly - get a picture of it so you can show your LLMD.

Sounds like Bartonella.

I had those in the same exact areas. It's Bart and or die-off toxins.

I'm partial to the die-off theory because consuming cholestyramine lessened mine significantly.

I suspect Bartonella as well. Take a look at the pics in the new Bart book and see if any of them look similar.

Interesting topic. Also see the somewhat incomplete wiki definition:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petechiae

How about a nationwide database of skin conditions, focusing on abnormal skin conditions. Interested parties could self-identify and upload their picture to the database. The US government and FDA doesn't do this with our tax dollars, so maybe it's time we figured it out?
