I was on the medication for several days. I developed a rash that traveled down my blood vessels on the outside of my body. It both hurt & itched. I went back to the doctor & he had doctors & nurses from all ends of the clinic coming to look at me. The rash was diagnosed as vasculitis & was the worst case they had ever seen. One of the doctors even did a biopsy on one fo the larger masses, but it was negative. They had never seen anything like that before. It took 9 months to get over the rash - like big boils that were on the blood vessels. It was so unsightly that I wore pants all summer long. Fortunately I only had it on my arms & legs. I now have scars where the boils had been.
