Hi Jenn
Please know that I am not a doctor or a dermatologist. You really have done due dilligence in seeing six different doctors. How long has this been going on?
Okay so here is what you are telling us:
1. This began as blisters.
2. You are experiencing itching.
3. These bumps are spreading?
Do you have any known allergies? Have you taken any new medications? Do you have any other symptoms than what you describe as blisters? Any chance of bedbugs in your home? Do you have any known food allergies? Are you sensitive to the sun? Have you been exposed to any insects including ticks?
Has any treatment helped?
I would keep a log of your symptoms and also take a picture of your skin and any changes.
A site called FamilyDoctor has a good outline of rash symptoms and possible causes.
You may want to see your general practitioner to see if he or she has some other ideas.
I am sorry you are going through this. Let us know if you find out the cause.
Thank you for your question.
