Sorry to have been one who forgot to change header! And YES, there have
been posts re: back pain. You could check the archives:

As for oily facial skin, YES also, it does go with PD, as Peter can testify.
He just tries to wash face often as needed. The other PD skin problem is
dry, flaky skin, esp on scalp, and this can cause blepharitis, or
crusting/inflammation of the eyelids. A careful scrub, as explained by
your eye doc, can keep it under control--other folks get it too, but PWPs
are at risk
more than most.
This is a good example of WHY we need to watch out headings! Mea culpa :-(
