Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 OH NO! I just read this conversation after coming in from an hour in the sun. I knew the doc said avoid direct sunlight, but I thought 15/20 minuets would be good for me. And then it just felt SO good out there. I couldnt get myself to come in. Suddenly Im scared Im going to get mange!!

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Same with me . I break out with a horrible itchy rash on my arms. My son plays baseball and I'm in the sun for a few hours on Mondays and Wednsdays. I try to use an umbrella when its just to hot to cover up with long sleeves or a jacket but I still mangage to break out. I wish I could find an umbrella with UV protection ( No luck yet). My arms finally get better during the winter and here I am sitting at baseball again, started a few weeks ago. I got my first itchy bumps on my hands last week . If you ever find something that works please let me know, I have tried sunblock and that seems to make it worse or just doesnt work at all. The only thing that seems to work is covering up. When its 80 plus degrees outside theres noway !! in Michiganjohn stratton <kentuckycowboy2@...> wrote: Yes, an hour in the sun and i'm scrathing like a dog with the mange ,, and get an aweful red rash with blisters on my arms the whole lenght of both them ,takes forever to get rid of it to,,,, my rumhey says it's a thing with the meds and the sun . john <kyrik@...> wrote: > hi, ! be carefull about getting too much sun. a lot of the meds.> saw to avoid direct sunlight = bad side effect = my dermatologist tells> me that sunshine would greatly help my psoriasis, but my enbrel warns> me to avoid the sun = I can't win! gentle hugs!

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Same here. I think it's just bizzarre that many of us have these same little oddities. I sure wish we could figure out the one link between everything and our RA..........maybe some day. > hi, ! be carefull about getting too much sun. a lot of the meds. > > saw to avoid direct sunlight = bad side effect = my dermatologist tells > > me that sunshine would greatly help my psoriasis, but my enbrel warns > > me to avoid the sun = I can't win! gentle hugs!

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 I've tried it all too! Nothing really seems to work. I guess we just have to live with it. My sister gave me an aloe plant and I'm going to try that this summer. I'll let you know if if works. john stratton <kentuckycowboy2@...> wrote: Yea thats ture , even harder is finding something to clear it up seems none of the regulars help me ? have you fould anything ?
