Hi!
Ive been having quite a few symptoms for the past couple of months that just aren't adding up. During the winter I had what seemed like strep throat (swollen neck glands, white pus on tonsils,). I was diagnosed with "sinusitis" and given nose spray and antibiotics. My tonsils are still a little large and its been 5 months, but they are not painful at all. I also get occasional dry mouth. I have also been suffering from hives caused by any friction on my skin for about a year now. I usually take allergy medicine and it prevents it, but allergy med. doesnt work as well anymore. Most recently, I have these 3 brown, flakey, small patches on my stomach. They are not itchy, but seem to go away and then come back. I was prescribed a steroid cream, and told it was nothing to worry about, but that did nothing. Other little symptoms pop up but seem irrelevant. I was just wondering what the heck is going on in my body! is it just crazy allergies? Your help is appreciated Smile

Already your doctor told you that nothing to worry about, but that did nothing. So keep cool.

It could be environmental I get similar so do many in my neighborhood , we have a lot of aerial spraying going on and it is known that the toxins sprayed affect us .They are spraying around most states .Do some research , you can ask for a heavy metals test .

It is better to stick to the doctor's decision and prescription. But if you feel that the medicines are not working anymore, consult your doctor.
