Hi I did review your symptoms.
I would recommend you to get your rash and abdomen evaluated.
Also if lymph nodes are enlarged I would recommend a biopsy study of them since you have had weight loss.
Later on a bone marrow biopsy me be required.
Such a constellation can be seen in hepatitis C infection or other autoimmune conditions and so serum studies for these like Anti HCV and ANA tests are required.
I hope this helps.
Wish you all the best.
