Rashes

I had petechiae some 15 years ago, with normal platelets though, diagnosed by doctors. Tiny red dots, not itchy. Nearly ten years ago (how does time fly) I had also rash, without known cause, occasionally itchy, lasting a week or two. Now, three doctors looked at them but were not very sure what it is. Will be making an appointment for an allergiologist in case. But also they occur in places either with tight cloth, or soft and thin skin. Do not know, was wondering about some metabolic problem. Meanwhile, took a new CBC for curiousity, levels the same except red cell indices "better"; RBC 4.01 from 3.8, Hgb 14.1 from 13.2, Hematocrit 39.6 from 37.7, MHC 35.2 from 34.7 and MCHC 35.6 from 35, MCV still 99. ANC 2.4 and Abs lymph 1.3, with WBC 4.2. Perhaps my body is not used to so much iron...
