Risks I’ve taken 👇🏼
- Getting off of steroids & going through TSW - topical steroids withdrawal syndrome
- Joining a clinical trial for a biologic
- Using that biologic - Dupixent- for two years.
- choosing to get off of Dupixent (and now being off of it for 8 years)
- going to multiple derms to figure out why I was experiencing chronic staph infections (not having to do with Dupixent)
- trying out Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)
- going to a holistic dermatologist
- after 5 years, finally getting patch testing done and learning I’m allergic to common ingredients in our everyday “eczema friendly” products and BPA
- sharing my journey PUBLICALLY so other people can learn from my experience 😅
And so much more!! So when people say I’m “lucky” that I figured it out - no - I’m worked hard and have taken risks to ensure my skin looks the way it does now.
Happy healing mindset, fam 🖤
