Dear R


>How did your doctor originally diagnose BXO?
>>The doc just looked at the ring of dry tight skin and said BXO.

be that as it may, there are many other reasons for the development of a secondary ring in middle age --- As the skin tears, it must be dry .. this could suggest fibrotic elements, but also maybe the lack of water, ... well I have an inkling that this MAY be a suggestion for diabetes - does your man recently need to drink lots of water? -
>>Just to let you know, my man is 33 and has been a very active sportsman (hot moist places etc!!). He still does a fair amount of sport. He has always drunk a fair amount of water. He usually only has 1 or 2 cups of black coffee a day, and tea almost never. The water intake has not increased.
