I've been diagnosed with PR one week ago. When I first discovered my Herald patch, I didn't think to much about it. It appeared on my right hip and a couple days later it started to spread slowly but surely. It started appearing on my back, now it is spreading on my other upper chest, breasts a little bit on my neck, and my shoulders. Its also starting to itch incessantly. I've taken antihistamines, hydroxyzine, and put on hydrocortisone. NOTHING SEEMS TO BE HELPING
I'm also losing my mind and am stressing even more which I know isn't supposed to help and only make it worse. I've been taking vitamin C, L-lystine, and thistle milk. I've also gone to the tanning booth three times. It seems to make the old bumps go down, but the new rash areas just seem more irritated.
I just want this to go away. I can't focus on anything and it makes me so self conscious. My job is incredibly stressful and I'm sure that as added to the spread but I simply can't help it. Also hearing that exercise makes it worse is even harder. I know I just need to ride it out, but I just feel so pathetically hopeless right now.
My bf was in town too and all I could think about was how disgusting I personally felt...
