As a matter of fact Glenda, I am back on medications. I am on prednisone,
antibiotics and medication for itch and pain and I am sick of it. I am 36 years
old and this is taking over my life. I have a 4 year old which I would like
to enjoy his young years instead of crying and wishing for something that seems
to never comes which is clear skin. Right now I have a lot going on in my
life which stress probably plays a big part in it.
Sometimes I am in so much pain I can't move which means I can't do what I
need to do to take care of myself which is exercise. Being on the steroids
makes
me eat, so I get depressed about putting on more weight and I can't do
anything about it. Right now my feet are so swollen from either the medications
or
the infection from the scratching.
I am so tired of it all
But I wish you all the luck with the medications. Let me know of your
success witht the medications so maybe I could discuss with my physician
Thanks
Terri
