I don't know how to help you, but my husband who used to just turn

beautiful brown no matter how long he was in the sun, suddenly started

sunburning quite badly, even from minimal exposure, just a couple of

years ago. We can't figure it out! It started *after* he began Atkins'

diet and supplement program.

It's considered an allergy, a form of dermatitis. I do the same thing

sometimes, even on my arm when driving the car in the sun! There is a

sunscreen specifically for this (I forget it's name) that is considered

quite effective, over the counter. Otherwise Caladryl takes away the itching.

My chiropractor (who is so much more than just a chiropractor) told me about

someone he treated who had had a similar sounding condition for years. He

did an allergy desensitization (he uses many techniques, I don't know which

one this would have been) to a vial of " homeopathic sun " . To the amazement

of both, it worked.
