I have what I think may be DH however it is mainly on the right side of my body (right pinky finger, elbow, knee and buttox.. and I do have a small patch on my left elbow).

From what I've read DH is usually symmetrical but can it be a symmetrical?

The key word here is USUALLY. This does not mean always. Yes, DH can and is many times asymetrical. And there have been times that I have had just one blister.
