Chrissy Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 Whenever I get wet whether its sweat, a shower, or swimming my skin starts peeling in massive quanities. I'm not sure if this is POTS, Lyme, or something else. Please advise if you have this. Thank you Chrissy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have heard of peeling skin with certain medications. I would check to see what you have started for a med prior to getting the skin peeling. Maybe check with your doctor about possible side effects of meds?Again I am not a doctor but that would be my thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie802 Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 Do you have a rash with the skin peeling?? Check what meds you are on because my mother had a severe reaction from Neurontin (the doctors think), TENS Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis Syndrome, the less severe reaction is called SJS Steven Johnson Syndrome...You can have this reaction from differ. types of meds if that is what you are dealing with. It could def. be something else....I would make a doc apptmt if it continues....Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
