My doctor's said it looks like three diffrent rashes; but yet to give me answers to what it is.?

Question: At first there was a spot on the back of my elbow that was classic ringworm. A few days later the back of my heels broke out into ichy red pathes. It started spreading up my feet, toes, legs, now thighs. During which my hands broke out. Only my hands are single ichy spots unlike on my feet. And in the most part white with a red dot in the middle. The stop that was thought to be ringworm is now rashed around with very dark red pathed dots along with a few bigger red dots on that arm. It is everyone from my knuckles to my palms, back ankles to bottoms of my feet, elbows and knee caps. If anyone has had or known anyone with a rash such as this I would love anything anyone has to offer. I've been to two hopsitals, seen three doctors and an intern. I've had one diagnoses of "posion ivy (way off) and three "I don't know"'s. Today I see a dermotologist. Any help before then?

Answers:
If you are in fact infected with several FUNGAL infections of the skin, I would be very concerned about your immune system. It is not normal for you to be overcome in such a manner. Then again, that is if they are fungal. Have you been camping or been around deer? Is there the possibility of you having been bit by a deer tick? There is usually a characteristic rash that develops around the bite that appears like a small bulls eye. In this case, I would be concerned about Lyme disease. Or this could be psoriasis. You are doing the right thing by getting medical attention, because without exam, I couldn't say. Too many possibilities.

Other Answers:
Take a bath in calamine? You might try one of those collidal oatmeal baths (can be purchased at any drugstore) to ease the discomfort...and make sure you keep that appt. with the dermotologist!!!!
