I have some small spots - some have little blister heads like chicken pox and aren’t itchy but if they get knocked, sting and are like little open sores. I have a few other very small rough welts.

I just feel achey and weak in legs and arms and heady, little nauseous and tired. Chest and sore throat have gone. Been testing with light line for a month.

Are you sure it isn’t shingles? I had shingles after my first vaccine. I also have chronic hives :(

Yes. I did. I also went on to have an allergy to medication for the a bronchitis Covid left me with. Medication I’d had many times previously.

Honestly, if what I had was just like a cold following 3 vaccinations the powers that be can stick my 4th jab up their jumper.

It was bloody awful. But who knows, perhaps if I hadn’t had the jabs I’d be dead.

Sorry, it was the welts that I had.

Lots seem to get bizarre rashes post covid - worth checking it's nothing else though. Mine was more of a cross between dry eczema, a heat rash and sunburn (sounds contradictory I know) - arms and legs. Started a few weeks after infection and lasted about six weeks. It's been fine over summer and heatwave so hopefully it's gone now.

Monkey pox?

My FIL had covid and then a week or so later had rashes all over, and also his legs were swollen. The Dr said it was common after covid

My legs are killing! Rash mainly on chest area, one or two on legs, arms and randomly fingertip!

I had an itchy rash with Covid, apparently it’s quite common.
