Does anyone else find their lips get worse when they are sick? And question for longterm

2 Questions

1. Does anyone else find that whenever they get sick, for example viral (cold/flu, I currently have a cold) that their lips get worse? For example whenever I get sick, I've noticed (including right now) that my lips peel a lot more and they are a lot more painful. I'm just curious if anyone else experiences this because if so, does it mean this kinda supports the whole autoimmune problem idea? This happens every time I get something that includes the immune system having to launch an attack, so I would personally think so but what do you guys think? I'm no expert.

2. This is for longterm. I read a post of yours that dates back 4 years ago where you talked about getting a blood test that tested if vitamins and nutrients were actually getting into the cells, as apposed to a regular blood test that only shows how much is circulating in your blood. I am curious about taking this test because I too am curious about my Vitamin A levels. I just wanted to double check, this test is called the micro nutrient test correct? Or have I misunderstood? Thank you. Gotta make sure you get the right one. Tweet
