Good question!

I AM ALSO: 1.) Skin Allergies: Nickel -

Makes sense our skin would be allergy prone - bet this is common

I Can't use tape/Band-Aids on my skin or my skin rips right off along with the tape, paper or reg. no difference.

3.)and med. allergies as well: for me they are Lithium, Depekote, a few others.

Now you mention it.. I Would think allergies esp. would be high in us, skin reactions we can See,

as well as the inside ones we can't. though if true, might be something to pass along or something doctors should

Ask in their 'assessment before performing' the surgeries/procedures - for if it isn't;'t life-threatening, the procedure I mean, I'm sure we'd have skipped it!

oh - and notice the psychiatric meds? - they always think it's in our heads if they can't 'see it'. so very common it's incredibly insulting how quickly they 'sum us up' as either having psych issues or ulterior seeking motives.
