Hi Elaine, I wrote you awhile ago asking advice about what I thought was an allergic reaction to Tapazole. At the time I had an itchy rash on my arms and legs. I went off the tapazole for a week to try to resolve the rash.(I'm on3.75 mg) The rash did go completely away but after 5 days off the medication I started to get a rash on my torso. I went back on the tapazole but the rash continues. It appears in one area is intensely itchy, then goes completely away only to appear in another area. I went to my chiropractor who has determined through applied kinesiology that I am not reacting to tapazole. I am having reactions to many things that haven't bothered me before. I am on a gluten and soy free diet as a precaution. I have switched soap etc to all natural products and am avoiding my cat. The rash went away when I was away for two days.I haven't taken benadryl as I don't want to overburden my liver. Is this a graves disease symptom? I am at a loss as to what to do- it is very uncomfortable. I appreciate your input. Thank you for taking the time to help. Thank you, Andrea

Hi Andrea,

People with Graves' disease can develop different rashes--see my article on atypical symptoms. We can also develop dermatitis herpetiformis. And we're more likely to have allergies. You might want to visit an allergist to see what it is you're reacting to. Allergies are strange because we can develop them at any time. You can be exposed to something for years before becoming allergic to it. I hope you can figure it out. Best, Elaine
