I finally went to the derm again last week, and she gave me something new to try. It's a spray called Clobex, and it's AMAZING!!!! After only 2 days of using it twice a day my excema was completely gone. I've never seen anything like this!! The Derm said it would work well, but it may come back at some point and to just use the spray each time it comes back.
So, If you haven't tried this spray yet I highly recommend it!!
Here's the bad news.... My Derm thinks I may be allergic to gold now, which is why I've been getting a rash on my ring finger. Anyone else have a problem like this? My E-ring and wedding band are both 14k white gold, so if I am allergic I can't really wear my rings anymore (or wear the rings every few days with breaks in between, taking them off before the rash breaks out, since it takes 3-4 days for that to happen). She said I could try getting my rings dipped in some other kind of metal, like platinum, but I'm not sure that will work.
Re: Excema ladies come in and dermatologist update
they can be dipped in rhodium - my e-ring is platinum and my wedding band is white gold and i had a white gold issue and have that band dipped every other year or so.
good to know about eczema - the baby has it and although she's too young for medicine, it's something i want to know about for later.
I'll look into this then! Thanks!
I am so wondering if this is my issue, too! My excema has all cleared up with the prescription cream I got in Greece EXCEPT for my left ring finger where, you guessed it, my wedding band is white gold and the rhodium is wearing off. My e-ring is platinum so, no issue there but, I really need to figure our when and where to get my band dipped.
