Hi peeps

Does anybody have any skins problems with CFS?

Such as dry, itchy, sometimes sore to the touch, etc?

Or nail problems?

    Yes, crazy dry flaking skin--especially on my calves but even when I wash my face or rub moisturizer, the skin rolls off. Just now have a sore that looks like a burn appear on my forearm but it doesn't hurt. Very strange. Nails are brittle and break easily is all with mine.

    I'm not the only one then 😑😣

    My palms are incredibly dry, and so are the soles on my feet. Also seem to have some oral problems. Any info on that?

    Thanks all.
