brizi77 - sorry to hear about your rash. I had a bad one all while doing P2 foods. Nothing over the counter helped so after 3 weeks of trying not to scratch, applying ice and being miserable , I went to see my Dr. and he said it was most likely a food allergy I'd never noticed before and prescribed Fluocinonide Cream 0.05%. After using it 2x a day, the rash cleared up in 3 days!

Later, I analyzed my foods and really though it was the strawberries since I was eating them almost daily while doing P2. After the rash healed, I only ate them 2 - 3 times a week and NO rash. Later, I found out it was actually the SHRIMP!!!

I ran out of strawberries so wasn't eating them. For lunch one day, I had a nice avocado salad (now P3) and put 6 jumbo shrimps on top (yumm). Half an hour later, I started breaking out really BAD!!! Thank goodness I still had a lot of the Fluocinonide left. I put some all over the rash and the itching immediately stopped. The tiny bumps and puffyness took almost half a day to clear up but no itching or misery.

I have had shrimp once since (had to finish up the jumbo one's I bought). Sure enough, rash within 1/2 an hour, cream applied shortly after. Can't say I'm done with shrimp but they no longer look as appealing as they use too.

Good luck on finding your culprit.
