I have recently noticed a bulls-eye rash appearing all over my body. I went to get tested for Lyme, and it came out negative, however, I ve been taking an OTC herb called cat s claw and have been feeling a lot better. What do I have if it isn t Lyme? Also, how can I get doctor s to take me seriously? No it s *not* psychosomatic.. Thanks.

The drug-induced rash is usually associated with a lesion in the mouth along with a drug history.

As you have an extensive, I recommend you to consult your dermatologist as soon as possible to arrive at a proper diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
