Am I allergic to the sun?

When it’s hot out especially if I have to be in the sun I get very itchy. I almost get a rash too. I wear mineral sunscreen because the chemical stuff irritates my skin even more. I feel like I can barely function during the height of the summer. Is it possible to have a sun or heat allergy?

Yes, definitely to a heat allergy.

People used to die from heat stroke a century ago.

Sounds like prickly heat. Are you a prick?

Yes, I had a friend who had a late-diagnosed allergy to the sun.

I thought I was allergic to Coppertone Sun Lotion. But I later realised that I may have been lying on itchy Paspalum grass.

DLers who spend most of their time in their mother's basement can develop a serious sensitivity to sunlight.

I used to work nights so it was easy to avoid the sunlight for years. I try to plan my way around not being it but sometimes I can’t help it. It’s the only time I miss existing at night.

Are you allergic to garlic, too? Maybe you suffer from vampirism?
