PROBLEMS WITH ECZEMA?

dj9928 · 2009-02-06 20:18:16

I've had Eczema since I was a child (29 now) As a child/teen I went to dermatologists and tried everything that was available, The diprobase type creams did nothing but inflame my skin and annoy me, the greasy creams made be itch like mad. We came across Eumovate and like a miracle all disappeared, I've not had any…

We came across Eumovate and like a miracle all disappeared, I've not had any problems since, I've been using it everyother day for the past 10 years and never had an issue.

Last week my doctor stopped it, Said she was giving me no more as it was bad for my skin, She put me on Doublebase cream and showergel, 1 week later my eczema has came back, My face is like a tomato, once you put the cream on it inflames it, I am embarrassed to even leave the house. Today went back to the doctor, she gave me hydrocortisone or something, Put it on once today and I only thought my face was bad before with doublebase my face is like fire, Like this guy here:mad:

HELP!!! I know steroid creams are bad for you, but I have never had a problem with Eumovate.
