rash on top of hands and top of feet

Anyone out there dealing with rash issues?  I developed a rash on the top of my hands and the top of my feet.  They are lots of scattered little bumps all over, flesh colored (until I scratch the crap out of them) and itch like crazy.  The itching feet keep me up at night where the only relief is an ice pack.  Cortisone cream was useless. I tried benadryl, but I'm not sure if it did anything. One GP doc said scabies.  A second GP doc said it may be scabies, but couldn't be sure.  I went to a dermatologist who said it could have been scabies, but he didn't think it was since it was only my hands and feet, it was a scattered rather than linear rash, it didn't spread above my ankles or above my wrists and my husband didn't have any itching. It faded somewhat so it was too late for him to test.

All the itch creams I've been given haven't done much and the itching is still there.  The rashes are still there, but don't look as bad.  Lots of scattered little bumps/welts everywhere though.  The worst is night time when it wakes me up.  Is anyone dealing with anything similar?

my ob appointment is next week.  Hopefully he can help me somehow!!!
