> Thanks to both. Chemist, you are such a resource! They did not biopsy my skin in the hospital for some reason, but I will visit the allergist next week. Of course I am off it, and will let you know.
you're welcome....make sure you ask for a plug biopsy in the area where the rash occurred. and you are looking for eosinophils and perhaps some langerhans cells, although the former is more indicitive of the drug allergy.....all the best, chemist
