For the last 4-5 years I've been dealing with a rash mostly on the sides of my stomach, and few spots here and there on my legs (it gets much worse than what the picture shows). The first dermatologist said it was psoriasis, then the second dermatologist said it was eczema (I had a biopsy taken both times).
From what I've heard, remicade can cause these rashes. I've been taking remicade ever since 2007/2008, and its still been working great. I talked to my gastroenterologist about the rash, although he punted it over to a dermatologist.
I haven't had much luck with the topical creams, and I'm in search of finding the root cause. Could this be from anxiety? I'm wondering what the next step could be to get rid of this .. Has anyone had a similar experience? I do have an appointment with an allergist, in case that might be the solution.
Would switching from remicade to humira be an option? If something went wrong, can I switch back to remicade?
I apologize for so many questions, but I'm a bit lost (and frustrated). Any input would be greatly appreciate!
