Well I am feeling miserable.  According to my Rheumy I am in a flare.    C3 compliment was low on the last blood work.  Sore throat the last week.  At times is is burning non stop.  Feeling a little better today.   Rash is spreading no long just on the thighs.  I did 5 days of prednisone.  It cleared it up a little bit.  Now it is spreading like wild fire.  Rheumy referred me to a Derm.   I see her tomorrow.   Thank God I got in quick.   Looks like a skin biopsy is in my future.    Rash does not itch started a red looking pin pricks and now seems more blotchy in spots.  Allergies are going nuts as well.   Not sure what to take for that giving my dry eyes and mouth.    Any suggestions?   I pray for answers soon.

I'm sorry you're feeling so awful. I would go ahead and take steps to alleviate some of the misery. Take whatever you normally would for your allergies but get some biotene and eye drops to counteract the extra dryness.
I miss the good old days. Things were more like they used to be back then.
