Can someone explain to me what a bartonella rash looks like? I've had a rash that comes and goes on my stomach that looks like raised red bumps and very itchy. From what I've seen online it looks more like streaks.

Thanks!

Bartonella rashes usually look like red or white stretch marks kind of.

Can you take a picture of your rash and post it on here? You need to first post it to a free site like photobucket, and then post the link.

I didn't get any rashes until I started the treatment I'm on now.... I'd get long streaks, short streaks, lots of streaks, mostly on my legs, sometimes they'd bleed.....sometimes in rows of dots...

Usually they come and go quickly... If I wake up and I've been sweating I'll notice them on my arm....

There's also the purplish bruised-like areas...

Mostly they look like a cat scratched you, but not always....
