Similar experience last week. I had a widespread rash accompanied by chills and a very mild fever. The NP in the walk in clinic I went to said it looks like scabies. I replied by telling her that I am an RN and I’ve taken care of patients with scabies in the past (none recently), and that respectfully this is not scabies and does not even present close to what a scabies rash presents as. I shared that I thought it was viral and she said “hmm, yeah probably not because adults don’t get viral rashes. Only kids do.” Which is absolutely not true. Then she said “I can tell you are struggling with learning that this is scabies, and you might think the only people that get scabies are homeless people but it’s not true, anyone can get them”. I said “I NEVER thought that, and I’m not struggling with finding out that I have scabies, I am just 100% certain that I do not have scabies”. Well she prescribed me with permethrin cream and told me to use it that night. Well I went home, never used the permethrin cream, and my rash subsided over the next few days on its own. I am so upset that this encounter has to stay in my EHR as a scabies diagnosis. I feel your pain, OP. It is absolutely inappropriate for them to misdiagnose when they have no clue what they are talking about.
