I saw my dermatologist 16 days ago for a rash in both arm pits and under my breasts. He said it was a fungus and gave me a salve for it. After 10 days, it was no better, so I saw the doctor again. He took a piece of tissue for a biopsy and put in a few stitches. I go back on July 2nd for results and to have stitches removed. I just saw, on a diabetes site, about fungus infections of the skin. The doctor doesn't seem to know exactly what this is since the salve did not do anything. Could this rash be from diabetes or is it not clearing up because of the diabetes???? How do you get a fungus rash?? It itches too!!! My BS numbers are under control, I eat a healthy diet. Now I can't exercise because the doctor said not to sweat. Any ideas!!!!

I had that on my feet one time. basically i got blisters all over my feet, toes, especially over and around the toes. had to wear thong footware, and although the salve did help, when i ran out of that
