Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hi, I am doing AP for RA (mycoplamsa infection actually) but I also just had a second outbreak of eczema in 2 yrs (never had it before that) 2 yrs ago they told me eczema was autoimmune also. Does anyone know a connection between eczema and RA or mycoplamsa? since Ive been on AP 4 months now and happy with the results for the joint pain. I was surprized to have the eczema show up again, and more wide spread this time also. but it seems to be clearing up now. may be a relation to poison ivy... had some PI on my wrist and then the eczema broke out all over my body. PI is gone now and the eczema seems to be under control. Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Omega 3s reduced the red bleeding checks and cradle cap my son had. It did take close to 3 months of short baths, supplementing with Omega 3s and kefir and applying Aquaphor on the really bad spots. Do a google search on leaky gut syndrome. Her grandson may have internal yeast which is causing skin outbreak. All the best, Joanne _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of bault123 Sent: Saturday, April 19, 2008 5:18 PM Subject: [ ] eczema? I have a question re:eczema for a friends grandson. I did read the latest posting (March '08) re:eczema, but still have a question. Her grandson has severe eczema head to toe. He's gone to specialist after specialist. His skin is (and always has been) like sandpaper. He gets staph infections all the time (has had numerous surgeries to cut it out), antibiotics, allergy meds, lotions, steriods, but nothing is helping the poor guy. He's only 3 yrs old and I know when he gets to school, the kids will tease him horribly if it's still like it is now, not to mention the surgeries for staph! Any suggestions or other type of drs to look for? I suggested the Aveeno body wash and lotion, that's what we use for my daughter - I'm not sure what type they are currently using. Thanks, Bonnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 another common thing with excema is celiac disorder per my pt. aor a wheat gluten allergy -------------- Original message -------------- From: " mommyz7 " <t_r_z@...> Did you try and elimintate Dairy milk and milk containing products from your grandson's diet for a couple of weeks? That cleared up my 3 boys eczema. They still break out to this day if they slip up and have milk. > > I have a question re:eczema for a friends grandson.
