Here Are Some Sun Allergies & Sensitivities Links
Posted: 07-25-04 19:39pm

Here are a few links I have found to be helpful in sun allergy, utarcaria, or sensitivity. I find it under all these names, but whatever it is called, I can't take the sun without suffering from severe hives.

These are information about exposure levels of the sun.

this is an article from the us food and drug administration about chemical photosensitivities, photoallergies, photoreactions, phototoxicity, and other info.

these are places to order sun protective clothing. They cost more than walmart clothing, but do help. However, you still can't remain in the sun indefinitely. When I travel, I wear the clothing, then cover the window with another shirt.
