Was At The Beach And Raised Bumby Rash All Over The Body, Tunnel Vision And Dizziness. Is It Sun Poisoning?
Hello. I was at the beach for one week and kept myself very lathered up with sunblock as I know I am prone to burn. I never burned but I have a raised bumby rash all over my body. My arms are beginning to look like hives. I was drinking one gallon of water a day to be sure I did not get dehydrated. I was not in the sun yesterday or today and the rash has gotten worse and I just had an incident of popping in my head followed by tunnel vision and dizziness. I have taken Benadryl the past 2 nights Hd started hydrocortisone cream yesterday. I'm also having boughts of chills. Like I said, no sunburn. Is it possible to have sun poisoning without sun poisoning and on a delay. Thanks for any advice you can give. - Missy - 37 year old female in relatively good shape.
