    That’s fucked up. I mean, glad it isn’t buruli, but what else could it be?

    It isn’t psoriasis is it? That responds to cortisone (I think) and is caused by everything from simple stress to other shitty diseases. If you send me a pic I can see if it looks like my psoriasis lol I think you still have my mobile number.

    The Dr prolly is hesitant to prescribe cortisone without knowing what it is, as cortisone can make it worse. But if it’s helping… 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m sorry that it’s so expensive. It fucking sucks how much a specialist can be, when not covered by insurance or Medicare. Ugh.

        I’m not sure how much of your body it might be over but you might either be able to get away with some low level cortisone or maybe behind the counter from the chemist that might help.
