I am allergic to so many things & am covered in a rash like I' ve never had before.

Hello,
Welcome to HCM
I am Dr Rakesh Sharma answering your query.
I can understand your concern.
There are many minor elements and minerals added to caltrate bone and muscle.
Any one of them or more than one, may be causing you allergy.
You are suggested to stop this and start the old one.
Take anti allergy, till rashes disappear.
Hope this suggestion will help you.
Good Luck.
