Title: Dermatitis face? + some acid reflux
Post by: CatonTheRoof on February 19, 2013, 08:57:48 PM
Hello friends,

So still waiting for transplant, I have been in total first 6 months on hemo dialysis (april to october 2011)  and since then on CAPD. 

I have continued urinating normally in quantity, just the quality is not there. Some mornings I even wake up dehydratated.  I'm using the lowest glucose solution.


Lately I have been wondering if its possible that I have some allergy or such?    since I tend to get seborrheic dermatitis on my nose,  sometimes it extends a bit to the cheeks.   I don't get it all the time, just in some occassions.    Also,  I feel my hair is very dry.

I have eliminated all gluten from my diet since some months ago, thinking that could be the reason. But still, I get reflux some times.


Have any of you experienced similar symptoms?


Now I'm thinking that maybe I have developed an intolerance to eggs?  before dialysis I didnt use to eat them so much, and trully between 2011/2012 I got so tired of them that decided to stop their consume.  Lately, I have been continuing some and boom! get some reflux.

i got seb dermatitis back in 2005 when all was well with my first transplant.  mostly around my mouth. went to the university clinic and they prescribed OTC cortisone to apply on it and it was gone after a week or so.  i never had to change anything diet wise.  the dermatitis came back in small portions couple of times after that and the cortisone took care of it. 

don't know if this would be relevant but i thought i'd share.
