Suggest Treatment For Severe Rashes And Hives While On Prednisone

Unlikely
Detailed Answer:
Sorry to note your symptoms. I see they are bothering you significantly.
Steroid withdrawal has different manifestations on various organ systems.
For example, if one is on high dose steroids for more than 3 weeks and if they are suddenly stopped, then there is a chance for adrenal insufficiency to develop. Adrenal insufficiency results in fatigue, weight loss and low blood pressure.
To prevent this , steroids need to be tapered slowly if they have been used for more than 3 weeks.
The other example of steroid withdrawal would be a skin condition like yours which is controlled with prednisone and upon stopping it, the rash can flare up again. This typically applies to skin conditions that are steroid-responsive.
So long tern 'chronic' steroid treatment may be necessary.
However, this is best determined by a dermatologist. I see you have met a couple of them.
I hope you find a reason for your symptoms.
