My rash was gone. Then it came back. Story of my life, honestly. Hahaha. When I drop below 2.5-3 mg prednisone, the rash on my shin returns with a vengeance. I'm really not even supposed to be on prednisone right now (meaning, my current doctor did not prescribe it for me, it's just leftover from 2009 treating myself Dr. Ashley style. Yes, I know you aren't supposed to mess around with prednisone. Yes, I'm aware of the dangers.). I don't have insurance and cannot afford to go see the doc whenever this rash rears its ugly head.
Anyways, I've read extensively about the link between thyroid antibodies and rashes and the connection is clear. When I see the doc next I might see what he thinks about treating euthyroid Hashimoto's. Not many docs are keen on the idea but it's worth a shot. I'm thinking... lowest dose of Armour thyroid, which is a combination of T4 and T3.
