I don't know how to spell this but it has to do with oxygen deprivation. I have that kind of rash on the trunk of my body...all the time now. It gets worse after a sever coughing spell though it's there all the time. I thought I had a lot of freckles on face, chest, arms but the Dr. said no it was old pateakia while looking at the ones on my back, sides and stomach. He said don't worry about it and said some name I didn't hear clearly. Also, when I have coughed severely, it feels like burning needles or shards of glass up and down my arms, across my chest to the point I'm in tears while I'm still trying to deal with trying to get air. I think it has to do with this rash too but it's like end of discussion with the Dr.'s Anybody know about this kind of stuff?
