We installed a salt based water softner 4 weeks ago and I have itching around my neck and rash, itching on my forehead, forearm, and itching on my legs. My face around my eyes are swollen mostly my eye-lids, this is already 3 weeks. First I was looking for a food allergent? but I cannot find anything. I called Culligan -company who installed the water softener - thay do not know about any allergy people can have - but I really thing this is the water. If anybody have the same problem-please, please answer. I did not do yet any allergy test.  Maybe we should just disconect the water softener ?? Please help recognize the problem.   Barbara S. bsapota@rogers.com
