Update on my wellness! Had my private dermatology appointment yesterday.
Diagnosis is solar urticaria and Dr Ling described it as severe!
Dr Ling is one of very few that specialists in Solar Urticaria. After contacting many dermatologist in and around the Fylde area, I had to go further afield to get an assessment so that I could speed up the process of getting to the testing stage at Salford hospital.

I had a reaction on my ✋️ hands whilst driving 🚗 there, it was bright but cloudy, so I thought no need for gloves. Obviously I needed the gloves! I'm glad Dr Ling got to see 👀 my hands. She used the words 'what a striking reaction.' She hadn't seen such a case in a while.

There are no triggers why this started. It can happen to anyone!

Dr Ling is referring me to Salford which means I jump the first 10mths on the 20mth 📅 wait list as she has done my assessment. Salford hospital has a specialised clinic where they will do 4 days of testing.

She's writing to my doctor to prescribe antihistamines and spf. Will need to take 2 kinds of antihistamines 4x a day!

Advice to still cover up, avoid sun 🌞 and bright artificial lighting and wear spf if going out. Oh and get my car windows tinted with the photosensitive UVA film.
Might have to do my house too!

Once I get to Salford (approx 10mths wait) they will be able to prescribe specific medication after testing and a treatment plan.
Currently the potential medications/ injections 💉 that can help, bought privately would be £10,000 for 12mths! Hoping the higher dosage and combination of antihistamines do the job!

Phew I think that's it for now!
I will be documenting my journey as it might help others! Will mainly post on YouTube as not to overload my followers on here!
As I was doing research, it became very clear that there is little known about it. So if I can point people in the right direction, I will 🙂

Through my post yesterday I have already created support for someone else. They emailed me with a similar thing. We have now arranged to meet to compare notes etc and I'm so curious to know how she copes and manages her condition! How positive is that? 👍

Today I'm sharing something more personal! It's my wellness! Since December I have been reacting to sunlight! 🌞 Dr suggests it's Solar Urticaria. It's not common and I'm in the system to hopefully get a full diagnosis and treatment plan.
Today I'm seeing a private dermatologist in Bolton.
My NHS dermatology appointment has come through quite quickly at Lancaster hospital. But for now I'm doing both private and NHS to see which pathways I'm offered.
The photos show me doing a test indoors with sun coming through my bedroom window. (I react through glass too). As you can see a clear difference of before and after! The 🕶 😎 helped a bit but obviously UV still filtered through as my eyelids reacted. (I have now invested in new glasses).
The redness is very uncomfortable it feels like it's burning 🔥. It takes about an hour to go back to normal.
Wearing SPF 50 does seem to slow the reaction down, but still reacts. (Haven't tried spf 100 yet)
I've had to cancel my holiday in March 😔 as I navigate this new phase of my life.
I'm not looking for sympathy by sharing this post, just understanding as I might have to change appointments and classes etc if any of my future appointments clash! Amanda Morrison will cover any classes when she's here!
I'm sharing this as it might help someone else, not necessarily the same problem, but maybe somebody that could be feeling isolated, fear of the future etc. At first over Christmas I felt extremely low and scared, as I couldn't work out what was happening to me. Moving on after GP, extensive research and finding a support group on Facebook, I now feel hopeful that I will be able to manage my world.
If your struggling at all in mind and body, please find that energy to get help.

Does this remind you of any side lying movements? We generally keep the head down, rested on a block whilst we lift the top leg, then the lower leg comes up to meet the top leg,or slightly more challenging is to lift both together. Great for pelvic stability and focuses on those inner and outer thighs. 🙂
