Hi. It all started with a sore heal during a beach holiday in Thailand over 9 years ago. I used to love the sun, but it has become my enemy. Year in, year out my condition seems to get more severe – I can have a breakouts anywhere on my body or from just having a warm laptop on my thighs. I have tried all the strongest drugs and seen too many specialists to remember – all of whom have no answers.
My biggest challenge has become I can’t wear closed shoes for long periods of time before my feet become red and painfully sore. Luckily I am able to take my shoes off for periods of time at work but it really limits what I can do.
My final option is a 6-month elimination diet. Just wondered if anyone had experienced similar symptoms or had seen the benefits of a strict diet?
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Hello, Matt. Yes, many people have seen their hives go away or improve dramatically after allergy elimination diet. I’d highly recommend trying one (talk with a doctor first), because it costs nothing extra and is natural.

I had the same issue as you for four years. I could not sweat, and when my body temp would rise up i would get dizzy and typically break out.
I was told to try a chemical free deodorant. An all natural one. I found one on amazon and after a week of use, im not kidding you i was sweating on my own. I now can do everything i couldnt do before and have not had a single outbreak. Seriously give it a try. Aluminum free!!!

You should honestly try an aluminum free deodorant. i did a quick amazon search and bought one based off of good reviews. i had the same issue as you for four years, i couldnt hike, clean the house, take a hot shower, anything without breaking out in a hive. It was horrible! A friend told me to get a chemical free deodorant and in a week i was sweating on my own again. Your body will go through a “detox” phase where you will do nothing but sweat for a few days.. And now? Im back to hiking with no issues, cleaning, working out, everything i couldnt do before i am doing now and with no break outs.
