    Hi

    Yes I use double base gel moisturiser too.  I find this pretty good.  Although I was told by a homeopath expert to buy Weleda white mallow nappy change cream when not using Dermovate.  I have just started this so not sure how it will go yet.

      Hi Cynthia doublebase gel is a highly moisturising and rotective hydrating gel for regular use in the management of dry or chapped skin conditions which may also be itchy or inflamed, this works for me.  It is made by dermal laboratories Hitchens Herts and made from isopropyl myristate 15% w/w liquid parafin 15% w/w it comes in a 500 g pump action plastic bottle.

      hope this helps

    I use anpure form of Emu oil. I have eliminated sugar, flour, sida and aspartame from my diet. I could not use the clobetesol ointment and strong antidepressant drug zombified me. Finally I agreed to take the shot. It took 3 weeks to kick in...those 3 weeks included weaning myself off if diet coke and all diet sodas, off sugarr, pasta, bread, and processed foods of any kind. I've been symptom free for 4 weeks now. The sacrifices were worth the remission! It was very very hard but oh so rewarding. I've also lost 15 pounds and I feel so much better. ALSO, VERY IMPORTANT, I take 1 Allegra in the morning, 1 Pepcid (beverage drink ir eat grapefruit with zpepcid!)at noon and 1 Claritin at night. The antihistamines have type 1 antihistamines and Pepcid contains type 2. This regimen knocked down the itching while waiting for the steroid shot to kick in. Prior to 6 weeks ago, I would be beyond walking at times. I believe the combination of my actions over the past 2 months is why I am finally in remission. .

      You really seem to have sorted this out, well done, I think cutting sugar out really helps with this condition
