Hi Cindy, I wish I had an answer for you. I don't but I wanted to share my skin story with you. I was diagnosed with PBC in 2024 and am taking Urso and Iqirvo. Last summer I noticed a few dark quarter sized spots on my legs and later a couple starting on my wrists. They looked irregular, and resembled bruises - although I had no reason to have bruises. I showed them to my GI specialist who had no idea what they were and ordered a skin rash cream. I felt annoyed because these definitely did not resemble a rash. But I used the cream for a couple months and there was no effect either way - the spots did not get bigger, nor did they go away. I had an already scheduled appointment to my dermatologist and showed it to her. She also had no idea what the spots were. I was tempted to visit a hematologist thinking it could be a number of blood disorders causing it. (I am a critical care nurse), but finally after about 5 months of having the spots since their onset, they finally started to fade, and now are completely gone. I have no answer to why I had them. I hope you get some answers because it is worrisome to get spots and not know what they are or what causes them.
Awwww, thank you so much 💓 you are wonderful ❤️
