hi there. At the outset, can you please upload a photograph of the rash which will be useful. Also, you mentioned a biopsy..is there a histopathological report & can you state/enclose the same? I note you have GERD as well that suggests a type A personality & are possibly stressed be it at work or on the personal front? Family? any one with similar problems in your close proximity? Have you ever recieved any treatment with scabicidals as i note your problem worsens at night.
Await your answers to take this discussion further..cheers!
