Yesterday after 9 minutes of direct sunlight I got huge huge hives all over my body . They were painful and are gone by today but Im now feeling awful ! I normally have sun sensitivity with a malar rash , easy sunburn and increase in symptoms. Nothing to this extent . Is this normal? I’ve been diagnosed for almost 3 years but have had it for 6 . Looks like no more sunshine for good :( I’m trying to attach a photo and it won’t let me
OUCH! I have to use a lot of sunscreens (50+) and try to wear loose long sleeve clothing and a hat. Also, I feel worse during the day when the UV is stronger, so I generally try to get my tan and vitamin D before 10am.
I wear 70 on my face but I still cannot tolerate any sun at all. It makes me physically ill and I still get a rash on my face.
What sunscreen would you say ? I used spf 70. Also do regular rash guards offer uv protection or does it specifically have to say Uv protection ? Thanks for your help !
Ow!! Praying you feel better soon! Sleep well tonight! Stay away from sun - use sunscreen, hat and UV clothes if you can.
