So I finally got around to taking a photo of my hardcore rash, caused by FLUORESCENT lights.
I had to sit in the doctor's office for two hours under fluorescent lights without any sort of protection. I didn't apply my sunscreen, because I'm a lazy jackass, and I don't have a wide brimmed hat yet. No before photo, but I guarantee my face didn't look like THIS before.
This is the original photo - which doesn't really show the rash very well, due to the bright lights in the bathroom AND the camera flash.

and this is the version where I just magnified the reds in the photo, to make the rash easier to see.

the rash on my face is called Acute Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus.
but i also get Chronic Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus all over my legs and my ears sometimes. (i'm working up the courage to post a photo of my legs. they are torn to bits.)
