Rash On Head For Months. Taken Antibiotics, Antihistamines, No Improvement. Suggestions?

Hi, I have a rash(?) on my head with some pimples. This has been going on for several months. I am seeing a dermatologist who has tried antibiotics and various antihistamines. She has taken biopsies, and cultures. Nothing has shown up. In the meantime I am scratching most of the day and night and this has spread down my forehead and behind my ears. I think I should consult an allergist. Any suggestions?
