Just got biopsy report back and do have eczema. The itching and redness is driving me nuts. Was told by two dermatologists that cortisone cream is only thing that can be used to control it. Kind of like a bandaid the way I look at it. I fear anything to do with skin since Mother died as a result of psoriasis. Also have perioral dermatitis around mouth. Was unable to take the antibiotic got rash, dizziness, and strange other symtoms from the minoxicyline. The RN just called with the results I asked for an oral antibiotic cream for around the mouth. I know this is all stress related. And at a loss as what to do to help stop this eczema flair. Inadvertantly it's due to stress. Getting old 66 isn't for the weak of anything. Anyone know something anything I can do? Got to force the excercise the bike riding as it's a stress relief and at my age don't need medical system problems to add to my problems. Getting harder to ride as the back problems. What I need is a time machine. Well back to subject for anyone who has eczema anthing you would suggest? All personal products are hypoallergenic. Thanks Phillipa
