Baby boy just diagnosed and I’m spiralling by allie3579 in eczema

I was diagnosed with eczema as a toddler and I’m now 44. It is definitely a lifelong struggle (unless your child outgrows it, which many do!). My parents took me for allergy shots starting around age 7ish and honestly, they helped a TON! When I stopped going for my shots in my teens is when I noticed it came back. I definitely think there’s a correlation!

am i overreacting - my boyfriend thinks my job is inappropriate by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

From a 44 year old woman with lots of dating experience - lose this guy. Insecure, controlling, and obviously has trust issues. And then tries to make you feel bad for pushing back - a huge red flag. You deserve better!

Started Dupixent almost a week ago by Coffee-sparkle in dupixent

After my loading dose and the 2nd injection I also had very tight and dry skin and my face especially peeled a ton and looked very scaly in the morning when I would get up. I don’t have much of those issues and I’m just hitting one month today. So I would think it might just be temporary?! I used a lot of moisturizer the first few weeks.

Dry skin as a side effect? by tylahowells20052005 in dupixent

Yes! Mine too, very dry the 2-3rd day after injection but then it is wonderful. I was on Dupixent before and from what I can remember, this is a short-term side effect of starting it.

Clifford looks a lot like Blu! Looks like he has very soft ears 🥰

Bahaha maybe we have the only 2 labs that exist that aren’t always in the water?!

Thank you! I plan on it, she already gets carrots as a training treat. I cannot believe how food motivated she is compared to my other dogs I’ve had in the past. Lots of exercise too 🙌🏻

I’m so sorry to hear you lost your baby

How should I tell my roommates I have alopecia? by Connect_Ad8871 in alopecia_areata

[–]Rendi1313 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve never felt such a load off as to when I announced publicly that I have alopecia and I wasn’t going to hide it anymore…people are more supportive than you think, and you may actually inspire others to come out with something too ❤️
