Hi. Thanks for all that info! I Appreciate it. My 9 month old baby has this problem so I know it's not coffee or toothpaste. The crazy thing is I am battling candida over growth and I think I had it when I was pregnant so when I read your post I was shocked because I think I passed it on to her! I'm going to go easy on fruit with her and we'll see what happens!  I think milk naturally has a lot of sugar so it may have been your sugar consumption. Thank you so much for sharing your story...very interesting.

How are you doing now by the way?

I saw on another web site it could be dust mites ....I bought a new pillow and slept on the couch because my mattress is getting old ....the bumps around my eyes were gone in a couple of days ....just to be sure I used the old pillow again and they came back over night ....seems that at least some of us are alergic to dust mites ...I'm buying a new mattress this week so this ends for good !

Ray I couldn't find my thread that I posted about being alergic to DUST MITES....I had previously read on another web site that this could be the problem ....I went out and bought a new pillow put a fresh pillow case on it and slept on the couch and  ALL the bumps went away ....I used the other pillow just to see if thats what it is and they came back ...I'm now sleeping on the couch because my mattress is old  (and must be full of dust mites also) till I can buy a new one....I think we have been  trying to treating the symptoms and not the root cause ..... I hope this helps

I also  have red bumps around my eyes  and spreading to my cheeks and neck and after doing extensive reasearch I have come to the conclusion that it is diet related ...not an alergic response ....I am going to start eating yogert every day and see if that helps ,but then  I also saw a comment on another site that said we might be alegric to dust mite which could be in our pillows so now I don't know what to think  ,so tommorow I will be going out to buy a new pillow and see if that helps at all ....I'll keep you posted
