Have Blisters On Body. Taking Methotrexate. Have Swollen Tongue, Weight Gain. Recommendations?
I have had a rash/blisters in patches on my body. Both my PCP and my Derm. cannot figure them out. It's been going on for months. I stopped taking Cymbalta one month ago and now am on Methatrexate but continue to have new out breaks. My DR. told my today to find a Vascular Dr.. ? Vascular or infectious disease? I'm exhausted all of the time, mouth and tongue are swollen, weight gain due to Prednisone reaction. Any recommendations?

Thank you for your question.
from your history it looks like autoimmune vesiculobullous disease.
Kindly let me know if you have itching? does blisters heal with scars? are there erosions in your mouth?how much methotrexate you are taking? have you done skin biopsy for diagnosis of your disease before starting steroids?
Kindly get back to me.
