It's sound more like rosacea to me; I have an auntie down in the states that has that.

Oh the rash I get is rosacea but it's not the same kinda rash I get with the sun. That rash was like a really hot and extremely itchy eczema that would flare up in a patch on one area and then disappear an hour later and then reappear somewhere else for an hour then go away and then reappear... but it was only for two days this went on. It started the day after my first time at Eklutna's gathering. It has'nt happened since and I've been to hawaii twice since then even. That's why I think they are wrong in the diagnosis. However, every year I go out to Eklutna, I do break out with a big rash of eczema so there is something out there plantwise that I'm allergic to and I'm thinking it's the sticky stuff on cottonwood seed pods. Either that or it's another type of plantlife there that is'nt in Anchorage.
What is your hubby's like though?
