Well its that time of year again, the rainy season but as yet not too much rain!. It is coming say all the neighbours. Now its about 33c and 74% humidity indoors and my skin always feels moist (not dripping in sweat) together with an itchy feeling, no visible marks or anything.

Seem to get it this time of year.

I was wondering if the it was diet related, I drink plenty of water but for some reason, I have lost interest in fruit. When I first moved here I was always eating plenty of banana's/oranges/Mango's etc..but now have lost interest!

I take medication for non-essential hypertension, bought at the town local pharmacy.

My last medical over 2 years ago now!!, the consultant said I had high potassium levels, but did not know the cause. I had numerous tests done etc.

So climate conditions, lousy diet or medication for the high BP, or start taking an afternoon shower & talc up to cool down :)

Some possibilities- diet - too much meat not enough veg and fruit; change of washing powder or too much; overweight and sweating and not enough exercise. Ants -the tiny little ones that get into clothing, - clothes not loose enough or not enough cotton; some medications do it, read the fine print; change of soap; allergy to plants, trees near your house. Can't thimk of anymore, talking aboutitis starting to make me itch ! Regards
