Interesting! I have been told that this "over reaction' to sunshine, is part of my "autoimmune array"...!
When I have messed up and had sun exposure, I get a headache and feel 'like I've had too much sun' - achey, fluish
But the main problem is the skin reaction of huge very red welts that are painful and leak clear fluid and the skin is covered with tiny pimple-like rash - which is more like an allergic reaction. { I am hyper-reactive to everything, including unfortunately medications]
To counter this, I use mineral-only sun screen - never the chemical ones. I wear 'Coolibar" arm sleeves. These cover my arms past the elbows and extend over the hands and up to the first knuckle. When driving, the fingers are curled over the wheel, so are in a shadow. These are very cool, easy to slip on and are American made, so would be cheaper in the States. I keep them in the glove compartment, ready for use. [don't buy the white as they get dirty so easily]. Oh, and a large sun hat with brim, large sunglasses, and my mask.... very attractive!
Sunshine has a strange feeling on my skin, like a carpet of tiny needles that burns within three minutes.
This has worsened over the years. As a child, I was just "easy to burn"; as a teenager, I didn't tan, just burned - I am fair- skinned, blue eyed, and was [!] blonde --- just a genetic 'recessive mess'.
I enjoy summer in the shade!
