There Is A Clear Plastic Like Film Growing On My
Question: There is a clear plastic like film growing on my face hands and buttocks. It peels away leaving the skin underneath sticky and like gunk is all over it. Im dizzy, weak and it often feels like im in a boat bobbing on the water. I have thrush and nothing taste as it should..it doesnt taste wrong, just weak. I have arthritis but it's very painful now and i can barely walk. I keep momentarily forgetting simple things and am confused often. I have only one kidney and my body is very acidic and i have no energy .
Brief Answer:
Eczema possible. Get tested for iron deficiency anemia.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I think it would be better to see a photo of the lesion on skin you are having.
I think it can be related to eczema possibly.
You should get treated for thrush with antifungal medications.
Continue anti-inflammatory drugs such ibuprofen or naproxen for arthritis pain.
You should get tested for iron deficiency anemia since you are having lack of energy and have also only one kidney.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
See details below.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
With the words 'skin lesions' I meant the part of skin where the skin is peeling off and leaving the sticky substance. It is better to see a photo of the skin first. I don't find it related to possible acidosis you may be having. I think it can be eczema causing the peeling of the skin.
Being confused, fatigued and forgetful may be related to acidosis. You should do blood tests to verify it.
