This is my first time with these rashes and diagnosed with pityriasis rosea by the dermatologist. Like you have mentioned, mine started with a strep infection (mid Jan) (doc. prescribed antibiotics before the culture came back saying it's a strep type B), then I had hives that itches all over my limbs 8-9 days after I started the antibiotics. I went to the doctor, they thought I might be allergic to the antibiotics and had me stopped. Then I got these rashes started around end of March.

OMW, this is so what me and my daughter have. She was diagnosed about a month and half ago with strep throat and then I got this weird outbreak. Now, I know it as the "herald patch". It looked insane and then  I had a weird ring on my arm. Then I had what looked like bug bites all on my leg, my arm, my chest. Then I started noticing my daughter started to get bumps on her. All along none of them itched! AT ALL! We were told it was scabies by a NP which I now know is all wrong. We then went for a second opinion and he suggested that we were miss-diagnosed and told us to resume to normal lifestyle. Then I broke out in the "christmas tree" rash all over my back! Only lasted two days. My daughter has complained of pain and every now and then. Mind you she is only five years old. She gets strep throat often with real light symptoms. I think she is a carrier as well! This all makes sense now. We are on the healing stage. However, I have read that our next stage is aches and pains then to follow with possible peeling? Not 100% sure where I read this. I hope I can keep everyone posted.
