      I appreciated your advice about "eczema and beyond". I just joined the support group and wanted to spread some support! :-)

    • Close Eczema

      36, bad eczema since birth. I have had years of freedom from it, but it's always come back. I have tried everything but I'm currently on standard treatment (steroid creams, moisturizer etc).

      Treatments

      Crying Somewhat Helpful
      Unavoidable part of the process of getting through it. Don't bottle it up!
      Fish Oil Not Working
      I've been experimenting with high-dose fish oil. The results are inconclusive and it's an completely unscientific test. I believe that it does dampen the immune system in some way, perhaps the wrong way, in fact I attribute an infection I caught to taking high doses of fish oil. However, whatever effect it has is unreliable and/or weak.
      Prayer Not Working
      Tried this 'technique' for 20 years without success.
