Hi
Its me again with another complaint.:sad: I have been experiencing flushing in my face and palms of hands when I go outside in the sun 8), happens also when I am in the heat and sometimes just happens when I am inside at work. I go outside for lunch when I am at work and I sit in my car and eat. Its hot but my windows are open and I usually park in the shade so the sun cant get me. The breeze is nice . I dont feel hot at the time. I only get 30 minutes for lunch so when I go back inside , my face is all red especially my cheecks, chin and sometimes my neck. It lasts for about 1 hour after I am inside then goes away. My palms also get red at the same time. Everyone else goes outside and eats in their cars or walks around and no one else gets red.
I even get red sometimes when I am stressed or just simply sitting at my desk at work typing. Could the fluorescent lighting be causing this while I am inside?? Its kind of embarrasing. I have been at this job for 2 years and when I first started, my Boss (The Dr I work for) asked me if I drank during lunch. I was shocked that he asked me that but he was serious. I am always red when I come back in. I really want to go out for lunch to get away from work instead of staying there to eat. You know what I mean. But am I doing damage to my skin everytime it gets red??? I have talked to many Drs about this. I was put on Plaquenil hoping that the skin thing would clear up but so far no and its been 8 weeks. Does anyone else have these same or similar symptoms? O and when I come in from outside I feel like I am overheating. I have to run my wrists under cold water and put a cold rag on my neck and face. Its weird and it only happens to me. No one else understands and they look at me like I am from another planet. :wacko:
Thanks again for the advise.
