Rashes On Shin, Itches. Is It An Autoimmune Problem?
I have not been officially with an autoimmune problem. However, my doctor did say that I had some sort of autoimmune brewing he just wasn t sure which it was. I have in the last 4 to 6 weeks developed a rash on both shins which is raised and itches severely. My husband lost his job and we lost our insurance last February and are waiting for our new insurance to be effective March 1st. In the mean time I have been swamped with a host of new symptoms. Any ideas?

Hi and welcome to hcm. Thanks for the query.
it is hard to say is it dermatologic or autoimmune disorder and further tests should be done to evaluate this. You need to check some of the autoimmune markers such as rf,Ana and similar. In every case this is not an emergency and you have time to fond the exact diagnosis.
wish you good health
