For the ones who have had it or seen what it looks like is this how skin mets look? I just found them on me today. They are all over my arm and my stomach and chest. I'm not on any medication or anything.

    Skin mets can mimic other skin conditions.  There is a link on you tube that you can watch that explains the different types.  Beware, it is graphic.  Jean

    To my uneducated eye-it looks like an allergic reaction to something. I got a rash like that when I went out in the sun when I was on an antibiotic. I know you said you're not on any medication though.

    I'm not a doctor but it doesnt look like skin mets.  Mine started with tiny little blisters that then turned red.  They didnt look like anything very much.  The skin can come out in strange rashes and lumps and bumps without any apparent reason.  You should get things checked out by a Dr. all the same for your peace of mind..

    If you just found them on yourself in one day, then it is unlikely to be skin mets.  Skin mets are not going to pop out all over you suddenly in multiple locations over the course of a day.  Most likely a rash or dermatitis of some sort.
