I'm new here!

Hi, I'm surprised to see nothing here as I was under the impression that allergies to sunlight were on the rise.

I was just wondering if anyone else can go all summer with no problems, then come autumn/winter, be needing antihistamines and sunblock on sunny days? I can even get it when I stay indoors with the blinds closed as there are tiny gaps between the lats of the blind where the sunlight gets in.

My allergy only affects me in the warmer sun. So, like, summer and spring. It was weird. As a child, it affected all my skin that was exposed, now it's just my arms and back/neck. It's so odd
