Hi Lora! ( and all of you out there) Kacha here.
I think your thought about something in the saliva drying out the skin of the lips was interesting. maybee that coulb be a different type of view fromthe one I am fering, that my symtomes, again spred from hand to lips. I could be something in the saliva and in the swet and since i sweat more on hand han reast of the body the symtome reappers at those plases?
The thing is, that I have always cracked lips, they bleed and very painful, but the moment the stickyness reappers it becomes appearnt that they get a more "burned" kind of irritation, on top of the crackedness. It feels like a chemichal burn or a sunburn. like something is really in action.... lik eu used gluestick for chapstick for mistake. Yep that how it feels. a warm burning feeling of chemichal residue working its harm. But I guess the feling comes from the friction of beeing sticky.
Since I had had severe excema a hole year before the stickyess first happened in -00, I was really upset with people telling me, (doctors ) it was only the severe eczema that was the problem.ignoring the stickyness that made treatment of the skin so difficult for me. you know youre own skin, escpecially when you are used to having to take care of ecsema. They really should get that it is a problem when extremely dry skin that normally sucks upp lotion in an instant, a whole can at a time with no problem, suddenly cant soak up moisture and fat! Is scary and really against nature. The probling with lotions and ointments just sitting on top was big at that time. i used a vaselin, by the way to to ease the friction of the lips, but had to stay away from products on the rest of the body for a long time. it beacame more warm and infected when old lotion was building up. Oh he feeling. Thats why I get scared nowadays when I get an upswing in symtomes, and when it seem to spread from hands to lips...hate that felling of soon beeing covered all over trying to find a way of stop it.
Another thing i rememered efter posting last time is that I had been using ear pluggs ( my neighbours makes it impossible to sleep otherwise) and I knew this was a really bad thing, cause they are made from PUR poluurethane i think. ( contains isocyanates like the plastic cast i ha a reaction to did. but cotton didnt shut out their jumping around in my seiling kind of noises. i have been using the plugs for months now so i guess i thought they were ok, since i use cloves putting them in and never touch inside of ears with bare hands. but i should have kept in mind that they can start letting go of the isocyanate componds when they get more used...now one of them have seem to have become really cracked an leaving liile pieces behind, almost pulverizing where i has cracked and I hadent noticed that. ( stupid me)
Mad at myself, this might actually be the cause of the reaction now since the polyurethane cast is a higly suspect from three years ago.
Have been, (a bit reluctant to) using a vaseline based ointment on my lips for the past few days, it masks the symtomes for a while so i can take my minf of it, but the moment the ointment is rubbed of the stickyness is there so it hasnt helped really. OLive oil orks too as a masking but not as good but i may change back to that if this does not resolve in a few days. since vaseline as you say clogging the pores.
I did have mercury tested years ago im pretty sure, it was a bloodtest taken on whole blood cells, not serum. so it was supposed to be more accurate. also had hair test. I wasnt high in mercury from that tests. bur very low on potasium and omega 3 s (dha, epa) and cholesterol.
I havnt had any filings in my life until this october.
i had to have four fillings , but i wet to a holistic dentist that gave me temporay fillings with what she say should be completely harmless, it was fosfat (phosphate?) cement. it has to be replaced after a couple of months. Now I am also wondering if it could be the filling letting go of particles that makes me sticky since are only temporay fillings that doesnt last.....but the option had been to do plastic or ionomer cement witch contains alumminium.... I was very scared that I would get sticky in the mouth when she did the fillings, didnt happen, and i thougt it would be fine the to replace them with the same temprary fillings soon, but do you think that it could be affecting now when they are meybe loosening? Maybee i should remove them and ectract all four wisdom teeth... not fun snce i went through probems with the wound from the last ectraction. i lost a lot of ponds ( soon im gonna look like a sceleton) from not beeing able to eat prperly for weeks... I get so emotionally tired of this. Is so disheartening. I wanted to ectract the teeth, just from fear of a filling reaction, had been putting a filling of for years , but now i had to ectract a molar cause the hole had destoyed the tooyh, and she wanted to try and save my wisdomteeth, but had to fill all four of them. cause i may ned to ectract another molar unfortunately.
A visit to my old iris diagnosticer would be a good thing I think. he usually has an idea of witch area the problem is coming from from checking the eyes and face. . maybe he has some thoughts aboth the fosfatecment. the person with the meridian testing i cant find now.. Was it you Lora that asked about the tapping teccnique?
i did that back in the days, but it didnt help with the stickyness. I am thinking about finding a homeopathic remedy for stickyness. cantharis ( spanish flie) helps with bladder infections sometimes for me, for all sorts of burnig sensations, maybe there can be found a plant that causes sticky skin and use as a homeopathic treatment with he homeopatic principle. Even if it doest take away the cause i would be SOOOO glad if i didnt get sticky skin reaction, the rest of my disease, is easier to cope with, allthouth the rest of ME related symtomes are bad. Anyone knowledgeeble in homeopathy? anyone tried frecuency homeopathy such as bicom?
Take care
