I woke up with a giant rash looks almost like as if i rubbed poison ivy on. find one on my thigh, calve, and upper arms on both sides. is it heat?

More info: That must have been frightening but probably not worrisome unless you recently started some new medication. Some important questions are: Itching? Painful? Raised, flat or bumpy? Well defined borders? Response to any medicines tried?
