Nausea/vomiting? Lots of nausea
Reduced appetite? Definitely. I eat about once a day.
Abdominal pain? Where? Lower right abdomen. However, I really can't stand any kind of pressure on any of my abdomen. It's been that way since my early twenties.

Eye inflammation? Yes. Sensitivity to light, very dry, itchy and gritty. Had to stop wearing contacts in Dec 2006 cause they would dry up on my eye.

Skin rashes? Discoloration on my calves - it's impossible to get that area smooth when I shave, but no itching or pain. Acne has been a HUGE problem starting in my early to mid twenties.
