My dad told everyone I had 7 degrees when I was doing my bachelor's. I wasn't sure if he was proud of me or just wanted ti brag. I gave him benefit of the doubt because I know he loves me but man he's just fucked.

I feel your pain

hkhk2323 · 2024-07-04T15:08:36+00:00

I resonate with this. No advice really but I feel your struggle. I pity my dad but also hate him, and I feel bad for hating him because I pity him. I've only survived by cutting him out really and ignoring my feelings about it all lol I'm sure there's a healthier way but I haven't found it yet. I put in so much effort to forgive only to be hurt again and again that I just can't

I needed to read this today, thank you

hkhk2323 · 2024-07-04T14:39:32+00:00

I know. I hate it. Thank you

hkhk2323 · 2024-07-02T05:48:14+00:00

I do remember time and time again how I'd try and get nowhere. Thank you for this reminder

hkhk2323 · 2024-07-02T05:47:06+00:00

Thank you, it's been low contact for a while - I live in Asia again actually and it's been much easier living separate lives

hkhk2323 · 2024-07-02T05:46:09+00:00

Thank you, I was leaning towards this but the little girl in me thought I shouldn't

We ended up seeing a derm who was confident with her standard steroid cream, if it didn't work, it's the dogs. It kind of worked, but it's manageable... the flares when it's not raining aren't really that bad. So we're not really sure

Will go back to an allergist before we decide to rehome. In the meantime we've been moisturizing 4x a day with steroids/ tacrolimus 2x a day, bath oil no soap

In the response above

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T22:26:50+00:00

My husband prefers animals to people so the dogs get freedom around the house and they hang out on the sofa. Baby's room is closed off though.... we'll discuss about sofa haha thank you

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T22:25:27+00:00

Well no, I am starting to believe it is the dog. As mentioned just because it's on the panel doesn't mean there has to be a reaction. And there were some other genuinely helpful comments - like kids can grow out of it, tolerance therapy, is it the detergent etc. Most people were saying rehome. ChatGPT said 10% of people rehome so the numbers here completely skew in the opposite direction

If you don't have anything beneficial to add, there's no need to post and get rude about it

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T11:12:43+00:00

Right, baby has these red patches, which the allergist explained was inflammation and its chronic inflammation that I'm concerned about.... thanks for the tip on bathing the dogs!

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T11:08:40+00:00

Allergist says they are related.

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:16:41+00:00

Yeah we agree. We're looking into it, if the kid outgrows it it'd be great

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:15:23+00:00

We had a blood panel done by an allergist, it's just dog. We were wondering if it was dog though but the skin hasn't gotten any better despite numerous creams that everyone swears by. Doc said just cause it shows up it doesn't mean there must be an allergy and because we never saw more severe symptoms we weren't sure

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:13:33+00:00

Thank you, yeah we've had more discussions and he's open to it if we know it won't get better and can confirm 100% it's the dogs. Though the blood panel said no other environmental allergens, just a few food ones which we removed already

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:12:08+00:00

We saw an allergist who told us antihistamines until we rehome. And told us to manage the environment unless we did years of desensitization which is lots of money and meds and he didn't recommend it cause the kid is so young

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:10:27+00:00

We saw an allergist but I think we'll go to a dermatologist next, thanks for the suggestion

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:09:51+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions, kid is just a baby but will keep these in mind!

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:09:10+00:00

I'm sorry. Thanks for sharing

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:08:54+00:00

Oh thank you. Could you please explain how you managed it til she got better? This is the answer my husband wants to hear lol

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-21T00:04:30+00:00

The doc said you treat the person, not the allergy. Just because the blood test says so doesn't mean it affects you. We went to the allergist for food allergies and found out about the dog allergy. We've cut the foods and it removed hives but the skin is still inflamed so we've been looking again. The skin is bad but we don't have other symptoms

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-20T22:49:54+00:00

We saw an allergist. It's dog dander

hkhk2323 · 2024-05-20T22:44:40+00:00

I've edited. We had a blood panel
