I've had this extremely itch blistery rash on my face almost 2 years now. The dermatologists have diagnosed & treated me for everything.
They did 3 biopsies that were inconlcusive. They thought I had rosacea, lupus, DH, folliculitis - all to find out the tests were negative so now they have no clue. I've been on several courses of prendisone as well as over a dozen topical corticosteroids, antibiotics, and various other ointments and cream that did nothing to help. The rash is chronic, never ever lets up unless I am using steroids, either topical or oral. But when it comes back it is spreading and is symmetrical and limited only to my face and chin. Anyone have any suggestions?? Thanks.
My nine year old daughter is going through the same thing. Hers comes and goes though. Itchy burning rash on eyes cheeks and neck. She had every test at the allergist all of which were negative. I'm thinking it's from myotoxins in her school or her dads. Maybe nail salon chemicals from her stepmom running a nail salon from the home. Have you had a mold or voc test in your home or work? It causes similar symptoms. Someone please give advice.

I wanted to say that I sympathize. My girlfriend also suffers from this. She can't get answers from anyone. Dermatologist, blood tests, and everything from creams and drugs to an 8 week detox and an ongoing 90% organic diet.
Organic chemical free face care included and still she suffers. If anyone does find any answers we would be grateful for sharing. abigsplash (at) gmail.com
