leneki....Extrahepatic manifestations -some common rashes associated with hcv are: Thrombocytopenia-a recognized complication after infection with Ebstein-Barr virus, varicella virus, cytomegalovirus, rubella virus, or hepatitis virus (A, B, or C); thought the most typical association is a vaguely defined, viral, upper respiratory infection or gastroenteritis.
Erythema and others.....check out these photo's.

it could also be your kidneys. you have hcv, but hcv resides in all tissues and damages all organs, not just the liver. i would see your gastro.
if you need to talk, i'm here at heppystephy@yahoo.com
i had several different rashes growing up, as a kid (1st symptom of hcv when i was 8. i still have the rash...spider nevi) and i'm 39 now and hcv clear.
i also had a rash on my hand that would not go away, one on my lower right calf-shingles although the doc said he wasn't sure.

the best thing you can do is go to the hospital. obviously it is a problem, because it's been there for two weeks. if it were any contact allergy, it would be gone already (unless you're still having contact with the causing agent, and in this case you need to know what it is to stop it). i don't know about intern organs problems, like liver or kidneys problems. but it is something, and you need to discover what it is. so you need a doctor.

hi there, my mum had this, is it like red marks rather than a rash? her doctor tested her for lupus it wasn't that, it had something to do with her blood, ask your docotor to do tests...good luck
i hope this helps
