Covington, LA

A rash developed on my back, legs and forearms. Dermatologist recommended Triamcinolone cream. It relived itching but took four months to get some relief.

I have had a rash & or bacterial infection in my groin area since Feb. 2020. The inflammation seems to be going away & comes back worse. Clotrimazole. Weird is the box instructions read that it is for Athletes' feet. Initially, it looked like I had tick bites. My Dad died Feb. 2020 he was 90 years old. Dad had a similar rash on his arms & legs. I was sent to a dermatologist at Ann Arbor VA Hospital. I did not see a Doctor. They call them Fellows? She said I was going to die from a heart attack because I have ridges on my finger & toe nails. Not sure what the shotty behavior by a Doctor.

My rash is gone, don't know what caused the rash. Going for my 6mo. blood test in Jan. Will get allergy test after holidays to see what I may be allergic to. CLL does not appear to be getting worse. Phil

As my office visit of Friday. Anything that causes a change in your body chemistry. Is not Leukeamia. I did not have constant pain in my hands feet or neck like I have had since my diagnosis of Leukeamia. The VA Dermatologist gave me RX for a cream to rub onto the rash & Itching. Almost 3 years later. Still have rash & Itching.
