Hi,
Have you had allergic reactions in the past? Are you allergic to any specific substances?
Are you eating properly? You need to take vitamin and mineral supplements for any deficiencies in your diet. Eat a protein rich diet and drink plenty of water daily.
Use a mild shampoo and conditioner. Avoid excessive use of chemicals, hair colour, dyes etc on your hair.
Are you taking any medications currently?
You should consult an allergy specialist for your symptoms and see what they have to say.
Till you get an appointment, you could take some OTC antihistamine or antiallergic medications and see if that helps.
Let us know how you are doing and if you have any doubts.
Keep us posted about what your doctor advises.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
Hi and thank you so much for your reply.
Apart from hayfever i do not have any other allegies that I know of.
I had been taking Gabapentin and Coden since last July after having a rib removed. I was weaning off the med when this started up.
thank you again for being there on the other end of this forum.
Kind regards
Hi,
So you still have significant pain in your rib?
When you say Coden, do you mean "codeine"?
best...
Hi
Pain all gone in the rib now, thank goodness - my nerve endings went mental after the op never had pain like it, couldnt move for weeks.
Yes Codeine not coden!! Sorry my brain just wouldnt let me spell last night!!
Hope your having a nice weekend.
Kind regards
Hi,
Good to know that your pain has decreased. However, please do remind your doctor about these drugs when he examines the facial sensations. This may be helpful to him.
My weekend is good. How about yours?
Glad to be of help.
Best regards
