Please, if anyone knows anything, it would greatly put my mind at ease.. i cant sleep because of this, and if i have lupus, ..... my life's only pleasantry is weight training.. if I had lupus.. that would end, along with the rest of me.

I also have tendon pains, joint pains, and at times have a loss of energy, a fatigued feeling.

many years ago, 20, i would go to Florida. After being in the sun i would get a rash n the same areas, lower legs, between my ankles and knees, more towards my ankles. I haven't had that rash in many years, but he tiny spot thing has been developing just like yours. I thought they might have been related. Another thing i have considered is that i took oral contraceptives and remember that they warned of potential sun sensitivity.Were either of those conditions present for you?

I have almost the exact problem as the other 2 people. More info on mine is that I also am prone to sudden ankle pain in that area. They will be fine most of the time, but then it will feel like I suddenly sprained my ankle even though I can tell the ankle didn't twist or move abnormally. And Sitting for just a few minutes will take away most of the pain, I just have to be careful the rest of the day not to put too much pressure on the ankle to avoid it hurting again. It's like a tendon just pops out of place then as I sit it eases back into place.
The spots on my ankles are right over the tendon that often hurts. They dont seem to get darker suddenly though, I just wll notice eery few months that they hae climbers a bit further up the ankle. On a rare occasion they itch, but nothing seems to trigger the itch, kind of like the itch I get when my skin is dry, don't ooze, don't feel much different than the rest of the skin, maybe a bit raised, but not much. They don't hurt to touch. There is a similar red spot on the top of one foot that is developing too.
The doctor has been mentioning immune system testing for other issues I have, we tested for lupus already, but the tell tale enzyme was not present. I know this is no guarantee that it's not lupus, which is why we are doing other immune system tests. I have diabetes, high blood pressure, hypothroidism, Polycystic Ovaries Syndrome, Asthma, and I am pretty overweight because of the sudden weight gain when the thyroid started shutting down. I have food sensitivities, but they don't seem to affect the spots. The red spots I would say started about 2 years ago when I first noticed them. They don't come and go, they only come.
Not Sure what other information I can give.
