I am a full believer in the Full Moon Syndrome, but everyone but my ex husband thinks I'm crazy. Every doctor I've tried to explain it to looks at me like I'm crazy and tries to humor me. But, I got shingles 26 years ago and they come back only on full moons. I was told for years shingles isn't chronic but now I see the medical field is changing it's mind on that. I've gone only as long as 6 months without a flare up of that. Now, for the past 5 years, I have had the pustular psoriasis on my soles and palms. (A nurse/practitioner told me it was shingles on my feet/hands.???) I quit smoking a year and a half ago and haven't had a breakout of that in several months. But....I have, for a couple of years now, sores on my scalp and hairline, sometimes in my eyebrows, extreme itching, hair falling out terribly, and my forehead aches (browbone), along with my eyes burning. Last month one of my eyes got kinda red. A couple of days ago, both of my eyes started burning/hurting and both are beet red and puffy. It's a full moon!! IF the moon controls the tides and womens menses, why not control other things? I just believe all my health problems are related to one problem, and certain things just bring out the symptoms (like a full moon, stress, physical trauma). My whole body hurts like I've been beat up and I just eat ibuprofen. (As my stomach can take it). What kind of doctor do I need to see.....dermatologist, rhumatologist, optholmologist(sp?), or a witch doctor to diagnose me? HELP!!
