<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I have been GF for almost 4 years now - but my fingernails have never recovered - they split, peel, chip - require constant maintenance to keep from snagging things. The skin on my thumbs, and now starting on one middle finger, gets so dry, cracks, peels - I have been to the dermatologist, I use heavyduty creams and lotions, sleep with rubber gloves to cause the hands to sweat, as per the dermatologists advice, etc. etc. Anyone else out there? Any solutions, other than moving from my desert climate to a damp climate??? Will summarize tolist. Catherine
