Reply to "Has anyone one else run across skin problems after removal of their colon?"

Yep - that's what mine looks like.  Mine is worse in summer months.  Vistoril helps me.  This all started for me in my mid 40s.  I hate it.  If it gets cold, mine gets better.  Can this be weather related?  Anyone know?  It does not matter if I'm inside or outside - in summer - here it comes - once it freezes - it gets so much better.  I'd love to know if anyone knows if weather plays a factor in this. thnx.  For me bread or no bread etc. does not matter - it's the temperature outside.  And, to my dismay, we live in Texas.  No choice - husband's job is here.  We hope to move back north once he gets 5 for years in.  So, I'm stuck inside a lot.  Does not matter if I wear long sleeves, etc. (it helps, but I still break out with this nerve stuff on my arms and legs and midsection).  I don't think I should start steroid shots yet - I'm 52 - it would seem like I should wait until I'm older?  Steroids for shingles (which is not the same as what we are talking about) drive me nuts.  Sometimes, there just is no easy answer.
