Guest guest Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Hi Pam, My EN was similar to yours in the way it behaved. What finally put me in remission was ice water soaks...twice a day for 2 months. and wearing the support stocking when I was up. I had to stop wearing the support stockings on 3/15/12 when I broke my right hand and could not get them on--but the EN is still in remission going on 4 yrs. So don't give up hope. After 41 yrs of having EN I finally found something that worked to get me in remission. Have you tried the ice water treatment--up to an hour at a time--BUURRRR? It could not hurt and it is free ;-) no dr's prescription required. Love, > > Hi ,thanks for been here when we all need to reach out to someone. yes I get that lighter area on my leg alot.the itching is sooooooooooooo! bad that I pray my skin will not peel.I haven't reach out in a while, but I still have out break with the EN. It seem to be every month I have them.they least for 3 TO 4 Weeks at a time, And I'm good for another two weeks and they are back again.I also had a doctor appointment on today. she said that it's nothing that they can do for me,Because the medicine that they can give to me to help it,I cant take it because of the kidney transplant, and the medicines that I take for my kidney diesase. I have to let the EN. take its course and stay in bed when it does flare up.at time that can be so stressful and depressing, some time I don't know what to do.I TRY not to let it take over my life but its so hard.I always talk about it with God because he's the only one who realy knows what going on.So for now I will keep on look up to him and pray for us(EN). > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
