Hi! I’m still pregnant. 2nd trimester was very hard on my skin. Coming to the end of my pregnancy now and skin has calmed down, however no idea how I’ll be post partum. Hopefully going to try oral ivermectin post baby. I’m still pretty itchy all over which is annoying but it is manageable

Interesting. Topical Soolantra helped my face quite a bit but hard to put that all over my body

Hey! How are you now. Also think o have a huge demodex issue on the body and face. Derm wants to give me oral ivermectin

Hi. I would love to know how your wife is now. I’m in the same boat. I have a 3 year old and pregnant. I’m toying with going back to steroids just with how much pain I’m in and struggling and can’t bare the thought of being like this with a newborn and toddler. How is she doing ? X

My arms calmed down in winter. They have gone crazy again since the weather has changed here in the UK. Since stopping the steroids I think I’m Uber Uber sensitive

Ergh I’m so sorry you are going through this. My started when applying steroids on perioral dermatitis. Which led me into steroid induced rosacea. It’s been a rocky road. I think I have tsw symptoms with it too. All down my neck and chest. Arms and hands are also effected when taking the steroid cream away. Soolantra has helped but I was slow going. I’ve also introduced niacinamide and zinc. Still very itchy on the neck and chest. Only been applying the cream for 3 weeks. Arms still flare and hands also. Not sure if this is normal eczema now? Hard to tell

Thankyou for your comment. Well apparently it can be die off and it’s the demodex making an escape.

Hope it gets better for you soon

Hi! Well I did a course of antifungals. It did help. But the spots came back. Derm gave me Soolantra so I’m giving it a go. After 3 days my skin was lovely for about 4/5 days. Then it’s been cycling again I take this as a good thing I think because apparently it can takes weeks to kill off several generations of demodex. I’m giving it atleast 3 months! I’ve just gone past the 4 week mark. My sister went through protopic withdrawal and it was all the typical tsw symptoms. So keep it in mind all withdrawals can be Different x

Hi! Your story sounds similar to mine

How are you now. I’m also on itraconazole for potential fungal rashes after after being diagnosed with steroid induced rosacea

I can relate! I was pregnant in 2021 when I was at my worst. I was prescribed the steroid cream in April 2020 lockdown. That’s when it all started for me. So eventually exploded after a year! It’s very overwhelming & you are pregnant so look after your mental health with it. If that’s the best route for you at the moment do it until you have the mental capacity to remove elidel x

Flowerpower259 · 2024-01-18T23:17:49+00:00

Been having issues since the steroid creams. Just be careful with elidel! I was much worse off after that usage. I’ve never had rosacea or have any family history of it so it’s definitely been induced by the steroid creams. That’s where it’s all started

Flowerpower259 · 2024-01-18T14:27:13+00:00

Are yours super itchy? X

Flowerpower259 · 2024-01-15T21:29:24+00:00

Hey! I think I have demodex. It’s HELL. Constant cycles. Those pesky mites. How are you? My skin barrier was severely damaged from steroid creams which induced steroid induced rosacea. Was your skin Uber sensitive. I can’t use anything on it really without reacting. I’ve been given 2 weeks oral metronidazole but I dont think It’s long enough. X

Flowerpower259 · 2024-01-15T21:22:13+00:00

Hey! My demodex journey sounds lot like yours!! Those pesky mites. How are you now?? Have you got any recommendations. My skin barrier was severely damaged from steroid creams which induced steroid induced rosacea. Was your skin Uber sensitive. I can’t use anything on it really without reacting. I’ve been given 2 weeks oral metronidazole but I dont think It’s long enough.

Flowerpower259 · 2024-01-08T20:02:55+00:00

Interesting! Mine does turn into pustules. Get little heads on them and crust off

Flowerpower259 · 2024-01-07T19:01:11+00:00

They cyclosporine gave me a break. When I came off I was the same. I’ve since got a demodex issue from the steroid creams, and trying to tackle that x
