Epoxy: Oh, oh - epoxy reaction?

I have developed a strange rash and am worried that I may be having an epoxy reaction. It's mainly on my torso but runs down my arms to my mid forearms and my legs to mid calves. Maybe 200 spots in all, give or take. Not itchy. The spots started out just red and some are now getting a sort of head on them, kind of like poison ivy. I first saw it yesterday morning. I've been working pretty intensively on the canoe this past week or so. Wet sanding and taping the seams.

Anyone ever had this? Does it sound like epoxy or something else? I'm trying to decide if I need to get to the doctor.
