Ashleigh Morris (picture below), a teenager girl from Australia Melbourne, suffers from water allergy, an extremely rare skin disorder called Aquagenic Urticaria [also known as Water Urticaria and Aquagenous Urticaria, wiki]-- that there are fewer than 30 cases documented in the world. She was prescribed a heavy dose of penicillin that rid her of the tonsillitis in 2003 but left her with this such an unusual condition by changing the histamine levels in the body. How miserable she is!
Teenager Ashleigh Morris can't go swimming, soak in a hot bath or enjoy a shower after a stressful day's work - she's allergic to water.
Even sweating brings the 19-year-old out in a painful rash.
Ashleigh, from Melbourne, Australia, is allergic to water of any temperature, a condition she's lived with since she was 14.
She suffers from an extremely rare skin disorder called Aquagenic Urticaria - so unusual that only a handful of cases are documented worldwide.
When Ashleigh gets wet her body explodes in sore, itchy red lumps that take about two hours to ease.
...
Ashleigh spends a lot of time explaining her condition because few people have heard of it. Most doctors and dermatologists have never seen a case of it. "Many people don't even believe me when I tell them," said Ashleigh, who hardly believed it herself at first.
