Just talking about the fact, For most of ARS , fever rash seem to come and go together, but mine fever comes 7 days earlier than rash. And rash (no itchy) lasts one month and much better rash (itchy) continues. How about that?
Could anyone just let me know if the described symptoms are typical ARS or not?

I was diagnosed with Lyme in late April. I was put on an antibiotic and then developed an itchy rash on my joints. They switched my antibiotic but I still occasionally get the rash. I asked an infectious disease doctor who did not seem interested in my 'itch' symptom and chalked it up to a reaction to the antibiotic. Now I have finished my month of antibiotic and am still itchy. The itching usually accompanies fatigue. Would love to figure out what to do.

Pityriasis rosea is a common human skin disease which presents as numerous patches of pink or red oval rash. The rash may be accompanied by low-grade headache, fever, nausea and fatigue and itching. Topical and oral steroids are needed. Water, sweat, and soap may cause irritation and should be avoided in the disease. Topical zinc oxide and calamine lotion are useful for pruritus.
But for exact diagnosis, confirmation needs to be done first for which he has to consult a dermatologist.
It is true that flu can cause a fever with a rash but usually only in children. Even though influenza rarely causes a skin rash in adults, it isn't impossible for it to happen, especially if the person has a history of skin rashes caused by allergies. On how long the rashes will last, it depends on the types of allergies you have.
The second stage begins on the third to seventh day, and consists of a temperature of 103° to 105°. and a red, itchy rash lasting four to seven days. The rash usually begins on the face and then spreads over the entire body. Koplik spots or little white spots may also appear on the gums and inside of cheeks.
Fever may be controlled with paracetamol and tepid sponge bath. If symptoms persists, it would be best to have this evaluated further by your doctor.
I've had a headache every day for 8 days. They are mild headaches, but painful enough that I'm unable to do much unless I force myself while I'm at work-- which makes the headache worse. These headaches are not sensitive to light, are not throbbing, or stabbing. They are more full/pressure. The headaches are on the front right/middle side of my head. I've tried alieve, mortin, tylonol, asprin, and migraine meds... nothing helps.
hey, if you don't have a fever, then its probably not ARS, if u have a rash, then it is almost always connected with a high fever.
Thank you for taking the time to respond! Because the rash shows first in areas where major lymph nodes are locations, I've been curious as to if it could be autoimmune. I'm currently seeing a rheumatologist and we are doing blood work and other labs to rule things out.
For this episode, because I could not take prednisone to stop the rash, I stopped life. I stopped cooking, cleaning, going out, etc. and staying on the couch as much as possible to not cause my skin to flare up.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations but three important possibilities which can present with such unexaplained non itchy rash presenting on trunk and then spreading to back are:
1) Pityriasis rosea: Pityriasis rosea is a temporary skin condition which presents as numerous patches of pink or red oval rash. The rash usually starts with one patch on the chest, abdomen, thighs, or back.

The rash seems to be clearing, flash forward another week, and now we have very puffy eyes, with a red splotchy rash ( not bumps) all over her face and belly, as well as a low (~100) fever, and a runny nose. Upon taking her back, the dr. suggested this is a virus; does this sound correct? Could it be allergies to dogs or pollen?
Earlier this week, I had a day of very severe fatigue. That night, I woke up at 3 am with a severe itchy rash covering most of my body, especially my legs, buttocks, and trunk, as well as my upper chest. I took a Claritin which eased the itching but didn't diminish the rash. I saw my primary care doctor that day because I was feeling very under the weather.
