around the beginning of July I had developed one seemingly raised red scaly patch on the back of my ankle looked like psoriasis/some sort of eczema or dermatitis so I didn’t worry. And I believe I had one on my hand too though I’m unsure if this was a cut at first as all healing scars and cuts on my body were affected

I have scars on my body and I had healing scars too from everyday scrapes. They became very raised and itchy and my doctor said that this was Koerbner phenomenon. Ok i’ll ignore that part then I thought. at that time we tried permethrin for scabies but did not help and doctor could not see any Burrows.

started to get small Ish red mostly flat spots on my legs and forearms
I thought must be an allergic reaction because I’m in nature quite often maybe I brushed up against a plant or even that I’d been in the Sun quite a lot mostly avoidable as it’s been 30° every day

I’ve been to the GP eight times since the beginning
i’ve been referred to dermatology five weeks ago and haven’t heard back yet

I have:
Tried Hydrocortisone
Tried an antifungal medication didn’t help
Tried Fexofenadine tablets
tried permethrin
Had flucloxacillin for five days
Now lymecycline
Had blood test for lupus and rheumatoid all negative
I’m not a person that typically puts lots of moisturiser on their body at all, so I don’t think it’s a product I’m using

In the past couple of weeks, the rash has changed as well the big looking welts on my arms and legs have mostly stayed the same
three weeks ago at the bottom of my feet started blistering with the same dry scaly patches on other parts of my body
i’m now noticing very small bumps covering nearly all of my body (picture at end) feet are still filling up with fluid blisters and itchy intensely a lot of the time

It covers my back under and on my breasts, waistline(pant line) Legs, Arms, Elbows, hand and feet including soles of feet (although not in between fingers and not in between toes, not under armpits either and not on my face)

i’ve tried to include pictures of how it has spread and gotten worse, but I can’t change the order of the pictures but I think it’s easy to see how it’s changed

One of the worst parts is my upper stomach and under breast, but I can’t show that on here.

and of course, really red spotty pictures are the now pictures.

This is really affecting me mentally, and I haven’t been to work in a month because of discomfort walking and wearing a bra.

my next step was to ask my doctor to do a skin scraping or something ( going privately for dermatology or to a dermatologist is not an option as it’s extremely expensive)

Female Great Spotted Woodpecker feeding her young

This video was taken from distance with zoom. No birds were disrupted, nests neither. An amazing encounter, we saw around 5 females in the same area, and also a Green Woodpecker too.
Spotted in East Sussex.
