I got sores at one point, too. I started taking a higher dose of folic acid and have not had a problem since. I am assuming you are on methotrexate because I have learned that it is responsible for depleting folic acid.
I also experience chest pain. It is the worst feeling. I have a good friend who is a chiropractor and mentioned it to him. It ends up I had a rib out of place. I now get adjusted regularly and do not have the same problem.
The rashes may be caused by one of your meds. I had a reaction between two and was loaded with a rash. If you are taking hydrocodone that could be the culprit. I used a steroid gel prescribed by a dermatologist, but most recently used baby powder to relieve the itching and it also helped clear it up.
