For me, I know that this sticky skin coating isn't the result of something in the water supply. Since acquiring it I've had extended stays in other places with a variety of water sources & have seen no change in the condition from one locale to the other. My problem first began in late May of this year with the most severe months being July & August. Although I have noticed several drug connections to some of the other posts, I don't necessarily think that is the root of my problem either. I have only noticed significant improvements following extended treatments with prednisone (used in relation to other health issues). My cortisol levels bottom out often & that severely throws off the other hormones in my body as well as my blood chemistry. I am now menopausal but have never has a need for HRT, but again I'm thinking that this is a hormonal issue. So, for some of us the answer my not come from a dematologist, but rather an endocrinologist.
