The exact same thing happened to me.
I had huge hives, pain-full joints and I was soooo itchy.
Dermatitis isn’t usually like that.
I was in hospital for 6 days and they took many blood tests.
It turned out to be a severe allergic reaction.
Have you had anything different or changed any products?
I have been taking antibiotics and had the cervical cancer vaccination.
The doctors believe that either of those are the cause.
But, saying this…it is difficult to determine what the cause of the allergic reaction is.
If it gets worse or you lips of tongue swell, please go to the doctor as it may be SERIOUS.
I hope you get better and good luck =]

sick building syndrome.
it sounds like im making it up but thats what its called.
sometimes there are harmful elements in the air that cause many people in a building to get sick.
phytoremediation is often used in mild cases.

Do you have the rash only at school or does it occur at home too? If only at school, there could be something that you are contacting that you are allergic too. Maybe the chemicals that the janitors use to clean the school. Maybe you need to go to a dermatologist and see what they can do to help.
I would hate to go to school too if I had a rash like that.
