Not sure if this belongs in the wtf or terrified thread.
Had this weird rash last night. Well, sort of a rash at least. Like blotches of skin were elevated and really red. It also felt much warmer than the surrounding skin. It didn't itch or hurt or anything, though. It went from the middle of middle of my torso to about my knees in a stripe on each my left and right side, and also a bit on the inside of my arms. The weirdest part was that it seemed to pop up within a few minutes, and I could visibly see it spreading once I noticed it. It was around midnight, so going to the doctor wasn't really an option, and would also be expensive if it was. So I went to sleep and hoped for the best. I woke up and it was pretty much all gone, though some slightly red spots have persisted throughout the day.
I have no idea what it was, but it seems to have corrected itself, at least for the moment. A doctor visit now would most likely be a fruitless, expensive endeavor. I tried looking it up online before I went to bed, to make sure it wasn't anything super serious, but the symptoms and appearance were too vague to get anything meaningful from it. I don't think I came into contact with anything that would trigger an allergic reaction. I don't even know if I have allergies of any kind.
Does anyone have any sort of idea what this might have been?
