Guest guest Posted July 1, 2001 Report Share Posted July 1, 2001 Hi & , You were right! Vaseline seemed to make the rash worse. I quit using vaseline and now the rash is subsiding. I'm trying to find the Labello Plus Premium lip treatment and see if that doesn't help with chapped lips. My Urt symptoms are gradually getting better. I've been able to add back a lot of foods that I had to avoid just a few months ago. Now I can eat salmon, eggs, peanuts, pecans, coffee, & strawberries. I'm going to " food challenge " quinine (tonic water) today, & tomatoes tomorrow. I did try the Salmon Oil Capsules (Omega 3 fatty acids). YUK! My reflux was horrible and tasted like oily old nasty fish... for hours. Very, very funny. Does anyone have the following? My hands and feet are constantly burning/stinging....24/7. It gets worse with an increase in temperature and they are unusually red. Night, bed-time is the worst. The warmer my body is the more it feels like it's on fire (inside & outside), or the sensation of really bad bug bites or thousands of needles being poked into my body. A temporary solution is to put my hands/feet on something cool, but as soon as they get warm...Ouch! Very difficult to get to sleep. A number of the Docs think it's Reynauds...which I do have. But the red hands/feet is usually associated with cold. Another Doc thinks it's an inflammatory response....Tested again for lupus, vasculitis, & other rheumatoid diseases . . . Nothing! My tongue is that way intermittently and of course the whole " oral mouth sensation " seems to have a mind of its own. Jeanne , CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
