Sun poisoning...

SIGNS & SYMPTOMS
Red skin rash, sometimes with small blisters, in areas exposed to sunlight.
Fever.
Fatigue or dizziness.

CAUSES
Sun poisoning is most likely to occur during hot seasons when ultraviolet light is strongest. It is triggered by exposure to the sun, usually in conjunction with sunburn.

***It is also caused by spending three days straight in the blazing Michigan sun without wearing an SPF anything. Laying on the beach, furniture shopping, ginormous New Era community-wide garage sale hunting, local ball game, and driving a golf cart around for 8 hours also contributes to sun poisoning. Ah yes, the backlash of summer... :o( But, would I have exchanged any of the above activities for a few minutes of feeling good today? Probably not; I'm a glutton for punishment! :o)
