Holistic Health for 30 years
Throughout childhood and my teens, I had itchy, weepy, chronically broken skin that felt like it was on fire. My eyelids and lips were cracked, bleeding, and gooey. Yuck. I was a hot mess. Life just hurt. At fifteen, the steroid creams and pills stopped working. After the side effects of the stronger pills were explained, I said I didn’t want to take them. My doctor said I was on my own. I wish I had a photo to show you, but I avoided all cameras… for years.
I started experimenting with different plants, teas, lotions, supplements, and diet changes. You name it, I tried it. Around the same time, I had major surgery, leaving me with painful scars and reduced mobility.
Both of those experiences, eczema and scarring, led to my specialties. It was a long and painful road, and required I make changes in many areas of life, not just one. I’d love to say “Bam! Magic wand, quit eating X and all your troubles will go!”
Sorry. I’m not that good. But I do understand your frustration. And I can help you get out of the woods.
