Subject: [eczemapsoriasis] Hi everyone!
Just have to say that I am 95% eczema free on my hands. No longer do
I have to wear gloves because of embarrasment. I want to post my
experience from time to time because this is something I DO NOT WANT
even my worse enemies would have to go through. I have always had
skin problems since I was a child. I am 34 now. It all started
right after my father's death in 2003 gradually. I am sure the
stress contributed to it so anyway my hands started to weep I mean it
was never ending. First water bubbles of whatever you wanna call
them started to appear and then dries out then the pain of cracked
(DEEP) skin. So like most people I went to the doctor and he
prescribed a steroid cream - FABULOUS it disappeared but a week or so
later it came back stronger and more painful and do not forget the
ITCH!! There were nights I wanted to kill myself or just cut my
hands off - I am not talking about just one hand - this is both up to
the tip of my fingers I had cracked - I was even scared to be
intimate with my boyfriend at the time. I was so embarrassed. I
didn't even feel attractive. I just wanted to hide from the whole
world. It took its toll on my social life. Thank God I worked in an
office where I am not exposed to other people and my co-workers knew
what I was going through and I work for a small company so it made it
easier but there were days I just didn't even want to go to work. So
again I tried going to a dermatologist. I was in the verge of tears
telling him to please help me!!! He looked at me like I was crazy
and told me.....there is no cure and there is nothing I can do for
you. He looked at me like I lost my marbles. So out of desperation
I spent sleepless nights on the computer doing my own research. I
was hopeless but I was smart enough not to fall for crazy treatments
but I have read alot of other things that made sense. First, I did
the cleansing and eating organic then I tried taking supergreens with
probiotics and low and behold a week later my hands cleared but it
came back but not as bad and it kept happening until it became less
and less this happened about in a year or more....I was patient. T o
make the long story short....probiotics saved my life from being a
hopeless patient crying his heart out to his doctor and giving me no
hope. Today, I am gloveless. The sad part of this horrible disease
is that it is different for everyone. This is what worked for me but
I just want people to hear my story to give hope to everyone....our
body can heal itself just be patient......natural healing takes
time. It is not a quick fix like steroid cream that eventually
destroys and ravages your body. What I went through was painful
believe me. I used to cry looking at people who had normal skin and
said why me?? I just tried to keep positive. I do believe having a
positive attitude will make a big difference
