I am post menopausal, have a recurring rash mostly at the neck, chest, behind the ears that has been w/me since April of 2016. I have gone to the doctor for this issue x3 and the clinic x2 for the severity of it and was prescribed mostly Methylpednisolone 4 mg. dospak s X 3. This last prescription I have stopped taking because I ve noticed new areas of rash postulus ( yellow ) in two areas on one of my legs, and the side of my face where the rash seems to be more prominent, the jaw area seems as though the tissue is thinner on the inside of my mouth. I do not like synthetic meds. and have become quite depressed as to what the mystery of the rash is. I feel a little despondent over the whole issue because I ve always had great looking skin. I am seeing a specialist on the 17th but the rash is in so many places it is really affecting LIFE. I have spent tooo much $$ trying to figure this out and I thought a Dr. would be able to help. I have lately been using a think layer of OTC Desitin baby rash paste w/zinc oxide to try and afford some comfort while at work. I am a African American woman who is 52 years of age w/a known allergy to penicillin.
