happy to hear you've made so much progress! I'm 3.5 months in and my rash continues to spread. I used class 2 steroids intermittently for 6 years on my face and eyelids. I wish the rash would stop spreading because at this point I don't know when I'll start to heal. feeling pretty down by the lack of progress at this point. my face and neck are so tight in the mornings I have to slather in cream just to get it moving. hopefully I'll have some positive news to report soon.
Hang in there Mary...100% recovery rate...100%!!!!! Small improvements will begin to add up...you will improve...we promise!!!! Ain't that right Josh?! For Geoff, 4 to 5 months was his "turn it around" time..but it was pure terrible up til then. You will improve!
I was 28 years old and had been recommended topical Cortisone by dermatologists since I was 13, because of this my skin became persistently red across my face, arms and neck.
The solution is to cut the cortisone completely, but this process takes between 9 months to 4 years to recover from and came with many horrific side-effects.
The video above explains exactly what has caused the red skin, swelling and many other terrible symptoms that I've battled for the last 10 years. You can view all the posts on the blog by using the blog archive further down the page.
