So I was allowed to test the oil too. It arrived a few days late, but ok... that also happens with DHL (although they are really great at our place).
I wanted the oil for my mother who has dementia (dementia caused by cancer surgery) but the treating neurologist wanted to switch medication first and asked to wait.
Since I have lipoedema and the resulting knee and Achilles tendon problems, I tried the oil on myself first. So far without much effect, but through the great contact with Jörg I found out that I'm probably taking too little (will change).
That was the starting position… in the middle of the first days of taking oil, we drove away with the caravan for a few days. The sun was burning, there was a cold wind.
Only: since my pregnancy with my daughter 32 years ago, I have suffered from massive light dermatitis. Hanging out laundry in the sun leads to itchy, soupy blisters. My arms are the worst off and have lots of round scars. Hasn't helped so far, except for Sonnenfrei, which is out of the question. I love the south and warmth and going for a swim.
In any case, I don't pay much attention to it anymore because I get blisters anyway. I will not tan. I only get a darker shade of white.
So there I was, sitting in front of the camper, and after an hour or two my husband said in astonishment: "You're all red, but no blisters..."
And sure enough, after two days of moderate sunbathing without any sunscreen: no blisters, no itching and no signs of tanning :O
Of course I continued to take the oil and yesterday I came back from a sunny, hot holiday in Croatia. Not a blister all the time, no scratch marks or open wounds...nothing. But a great tan and an astonished husband!
Thanks for that! The new oil is on its way to me and this time I'll take more... I promise Jörg!
