CF and Paleness?

This is how pale I am. Nope no red hair. Guess I'm just naturaly (or unnaturally) white. The most I ever do to get some color is let my arms sit in the sun through a shadow till I'm a deeper red than a regular burn. I know cipro and stuff make you burn way easier too, I completely avoid sun at that point. Thanks for the replies and stuff though!

I am very pale. I am not underweight, no vitamin deficience (all levels are good), my O2 is good, and I am well right now (I become even paler when I am sick, along with purplish eye lids). I dont have red hair, but a red highlight/shine to my hair that is natural and only shows in the sun. If I am out in the sun for 10 mins, I start turning pink. I can use SPF 50 and still turn pink within the hour or less. I've had people call my skin porcelain. If I am on abx, going outside is to be avoided completely. I have also been told by doctors that I should not tan at all, no sunbathing, no tanning beds...nothing.
