An account of my journey coming off 30 years of topical steroid use for eczema. My journey began on February 14th, 2013. Below are the three reasons I fought so hard to find an easier way through this!

Just shy of completing 7 months.
In a few days will be my 7th month mark - 7 months of hell on earth. I am so thankful for the people with TSW out there who have blogged and started the support group. Without them, I would not have known about TSW and still be living with my "really bad eczema". I continue in flare mode - all over from face to toes. The other day I started itching my scalp and have a very small patch on the right side of my scalp. I am also oozing from my right ear. And the ooze is coming from all over as well. But those are my new areas. Not anywhere left to spread. It just will worsen now in the new areas. I am just plain numb with all this. I can't seem to process the severity of all this. I live on my couch, ice pack around my neck, crouched over in pain, wondering when all this will end. Wondering if my skin will ever heal. Logically I know it will, but right now it sure doesn't seem like it will. Just putting one foot in front of the other right now.
