RASH STORIES
My son used to get rashes when he was young.  I called the local
well-respected dermotologist but it took  him sometime to get back to
me.  I made another appointment with the local pediatrician.  Just
before our appointment the dermotologist called and I asked him if he
thought it could be from the antibiotic treatment my son had just
finished for something else.  He said for sure it could be from that.
When I asked the pediatrician he said they just didn't know what rashes came from and he didn't think it could be from the antibiotics.  As I saw with my son it was usually some kind of food allergy.  The first time it was mushrooms, he was under one year old them.  Another time it was from strawberries.  He grew out of  rashes when he got older.

Another rash story.  I got a rash recently and it kept getting worse.
The Kaiser doctor didn't know what it was from and gave me ointment and anti-itching pills. It didn't work; the rash persisted.  It got even bigger.   Then I went to a naturopath that had done some good for me in the past.  He wasn't sure what it was either.  He even did some extensive food allergy testing. He gave me ointment.  Still the rash persisted. I finally went to my doctor.   He diagnosed too much sugar--a and Diflucan.  I couldn't have any sugars for one month. That worked;the rash finally went away.
