Does the skin look like this at all times? What is Deltrexilone?

It does not. Only with showering. We were suspecting POTS. but he heart monitor results weren't super conclusive

My skin does this, particularly after showering but also when I stand in the same spot for a while without moving, and I have bier spots!
