It started as a dry itchy bit on the side of my boob but over the last week it's got worse. I now have small flat red blotches over my chest and my back along with some raised spots on my back. They are really itchy, worse in the evening. But now i've got pink/red blotch marks over my forehead and down the side of my hairline too. Taking a benadryl seems to help stop most of the itching so I thought at first it was an allergic reaction possibly to pollen in my clothes but it's still going on.

No-one else in the house has anything like this.

I'm phoning the doctors in the morning but considering the last time I tried to see anyone it was a 3 week wait I don't hold out much hope of being seen this week. So does anyone want to diagnose me ??
