Before they diagnosed me with DLE, they went through a bunch of other ideas.

They seem ridiculous now that I look at them.

  • Mosquito bites.
  • Ant bites.
  • Flea bites.
  • Food allergies.
  • Sun/grass/tree allergies.
  • MRSA.
  • Cancer.

In the end it came down to Cancer and DLE. That was when they finally took a biopsy of my skin.

If any of you have ridiculous stories concerning diagnoses or doctors, feel free to share them.
