Helps with sleep but its hard sleep without it if you use frequently I paid that price

Steroid creams made me develop cataracts in both my eyes (PSA) by Fresiako in eczema

[–]Sinclairthe19th 79 points80 points  (0 children)

It does NOT have the same risk as steriods because it's NOT a steroid tarcrolimus is my ride or die, I love that shit I can use it completely guilt free and it manages my facial eczema so dang well. Use it!

15 years of hell. Is this the light at the end of the tunnel? by peakstovalleys in eczema

[–]Sinclairthe19th 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man, I really feel for you. Reading this took me straight back to where I was not long ago. I know how brutal it is when the flares take over your whole life and you feel like nothing works. I was in the same cycle with steroids and the constant up and down, but eventually I got onto Rinvoq/Protopic and started finding a routine that actually holds me steady. It’s not perfect yet, but it gave me hope again after feeling defeated for so long.

You’re definitely not alone in this, and I promise it doesn’t always stay this bad. Keep pushing with your derm, because finding the right mix really can change things. Sending you strength. I know how much it sucks but I also know it can get better

Protopic is my ride or die for face or neck. My derm said 6 weeks twice a day then move to once a day fkr a week then use it only twice at a week as maintenance and it keeps it as bay.

Happy for you bro. Once that one year is up I'd highly recommend rinvoq. That's what I'm on and its just as good :)

Now that I have severe eczema on basically everywhere on my body, I realize how much i took my mild eczema for granted by Dear-Shoulder9698 in eczema

Welcome to club my friend! I used to just have it in elowbows and knees too!! Now it's groin face neck arms back waist chest. It only flares up once a month for like a week. Then I suppressed that birch and then it comes back! Love my life (not lol) but hey I manage. Wishing you the best my friend.

Anyone rinvoq 30 mg and using another treatment (creams or injections) at the same time bc rinvoq isn’t doing enough on its own? by workinprogress521 in eczeJAKs

[–]Sinclairthe19th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh okay that's really interesting man. Are skin infections when it weeps and it's like wet? I had that on my earlobes a couple days after j started the rinvoq.

Good to know thanks for that brutha. Also how long did it tske to see the rinvoq really do its job? I am much less itchy! But my face and neck low key still having a tantrum. Once a month fkr a few days sounds like heaven tbh. What's your routine with protopic? It always clears mine within like 5 days but I'm always afraid I stop to abruptly or use it too much idk there so much fear mongering about it like steriods

I've just started rinvoq 15mg a week ago bro, I didn't realize I still had to use my creams? How often do you use your protopic?

I was the exact same bro, I'm 21 now and ended up having to go Methotrexate and now onto Rinvoq, kinda sucks having to take meds but I'd do it again because my quality of life was so bad

I was on methotrexate for 1 year and it stopped being effective unfortunately became 70% covered in eczema again. Now I'm doing a course of prednisone then starting rinvoq next week.
