Just a thought, it’s probably a long shot but have you had testing for metal allergies?
The reason I ask is because I know I’m allergic to nickel (common allergy), chromium and cobalt.
I recently had an outbreak of dishydrotic eczema (pompholyx) on my hands and after a few weeks worked out it was my cobalt allergy - I had been taking lady vitamins and they contain b12.
Another name for b12 is cobalamin - ie cobalt containing, something I never knew before.
Anyway, I’m not saying you’re the same, but things you are allergic to can crop up in funny places.
Also I have read that ppp has a higher incidence of metal allergy.
Who knows, probably not of much use to you but it may be worth exploring..
