Thanks bluebicycle. I did ask a doctor who gave me more than the standard 5 minute appointment about seeing an allergist. This doctor referred me to a dermatologist As I have found the only cream for my face I’m not allergic to through personal research, with the help of Papa Bear I figured that for now I don’t want to go the dermatologist route . (I have seen dermatologists before )

I posted before how a doctor suggested I take oral steroids along with a psych med. No thanks (I’m in the uk ) (some doctors seem to think we can’t or don’t do our own research, ugh )

It might be something I can try though, it’s a good suggestion, an allergist. I’m severely psychically “allergic” to all doctors though

I’m hoping some of this increased anxiety etc is “the time of year”.

I do exercise etc when I can ..
