Diane,
Thank you so much for responding. I'm touched, as anytime I have really needed help with a solution/condition, it is a complete stranger that comes to my aid. I'm still suffering from having to deal with a computer virus, and many hair pulling hours spent on the phone with Norton/Verizon/Dell, with each one blaming the other.
My mother was diagonsed with Celiac disease about 4 years ago. Wheat bread is a staple part of the diet in the area that I grew up in, and on an average is consumed atleast 3 times a day. She was unable to retain any food, and had diarrhea for 8 months, lost an incredible amount of weight, had been to innumerable Doctors, and in the last Doctor she went to was able to pinpoint her problem. She has an intolerance to gluten, every now and then she will eat something that has gluten in it, and it does not bother her. Although, I have now heard of three other cases, just within 2 miles of where she lives. It seems to be far more common. I sometimes think, it may be some of the chemicals that may be used. As per some of the websites that I read, stated that people from the Northern Parts of India, Pakistant, Iran, Turkey, etc right up to the West Coast of Ireland, were more prone to it. Interesting enough, genetically, this valids some of the theories of migration of gypsies from India to Europe and Europeon invaders to Northern India. I fortunately am not overly fond of bread, so I think I will be safe.
With allergies, I know a couple of allergies that I have, but with all the generic products for prescription medicine, it is really hard to find out. I have mild allergies to apple, walnut, avocado etc. Someone had suggested that mica may be the culprit, so I am going to try and test that.
I have always been very careful with cleaners and face creams, because of sensitive skin. Since eye basics was more a beauty product, I have not really tried any other along the same lines. I sampled Shisheido and seemed to have no problem with it, but am not going to buy it, just in the event. In my attempt to simplify my life, I seemed to have made it more complicated. I started out, wanted just two creams, a day and a night, instead of day, night, neck, eye, hand, foot et al.. I did however, find Jojoba Oil, which is excellent. I now mix this with my body lotion and also use it on my hair and face and this is the first winter, that I have not complained of dry skin.
