I have had CP as a child and tested immune in an occupational health check less than 6 months ago

I dont think its shingles, as only a few spots not correlated along nerves at all.

These are only things i have known to give fluidy spots.

I have about 10/12 spots under my hair

Had several on my fave but these have crusted over/just scars left

The first spot was on my elbow, maybe two weeks ago and now is just big scab (about 1cm/2cm) lump

I thought it was better but two appeared yesterday, one on each knee cap

It itchs alot.

Walk in centre has 2 hour wait and i have both kids (half term) so am not keen to see dr tbh

how odd, it does sound like chicken pox
hmm we need a doctor

odd that you've been producing spots for 2 weeks. Hmmm

It could be a reaction to gluten

I think the spots sound a bit widespread over your body to be shingles - they are usually clearly on a nerve line.

Could it be something like impetigo?

I think you really need to see the doctor if possible.

Molluscum?

starfishmummy · 21/02/2011 14:43

Could dbe CP or shingles or could be allergy or lots of other things! Best to get it checked.

freshmint · 21/02/2011 16:52

aha!

prize to fivefeettwo

I bet they are molluscum

well they could be

if so there is absolutely nothing you can do about them, they go away when they feel like it (can be up to two years though)

sounds v like them though
