Change in skin oiliness

[Chris_O]

Hi everyone, since I’ve had R.A. my skin has gradually increased in oiliness. Typically when I use a touch screen I leave visible finger prints, in comparison my wife doesn’t have this effect.

Any one else have this effect?

Sorry but I haven’t noticed that.

Not at all! In fact the opposite if anything - but that might just be aging...

I'm the complete opposite my skin is soooooo dry, I've never suffered from dry skin, so I'm assuming it s the drugs taken for RA or having the disease.

Me too!

[QAGS]

yes, my skin is terribly dry, this since the onset of RA...I hate it!

[Mmrr]

Like the others who have commented, my skin is very dry.
