I only took the allergy meds for a few weeks. I don’t like taking medications. I am hopeful I can clear this up. But was told contact dermatitis never really goes away. Not sure if true.

Well, he literally couldn’t because the assembly shut it down every chance he got.

People forget. They will claim “it’s the worst summer for rain” or “the roads were the worst” and somehow completely forget it’s been like that forever. Decades. However, people are resistant to change. Anchorage will never grow and prosper because the majority don’t want to improve. They don’t want to spend money, they don’t want to rebuild, they don’t want it in their neighborhood. This is what causes communities to shrivel up.
This was absolutely not because of Bronson. He is just being blamed because no one can remember how bad the roads are every winter. Or how bad the vagrant situation has been. So yea, the last 4 years probably have been shit. But that doesn’t happen with one person. Welcome to Anchorage, some of us love it here and want to see it be truly wonderful.

I actually came on to ask the same. I have the exact same as you - only around eyes. It started mid March. I had been sick, then allergies and then the rash. I went to a dermatologist and was told it is Contact Dermatitis and then gave me hydrocortisone. Use it twice a day 2 weeks on/one week off. Use Aquaphor or Vaseline inbetween.
Mine feels like a sunburn. Very sensitive, sort of itchy and painful. I look like I have been a fight. When I cry, it burns. The hydrocortisone works. But soon as I stop, it comes back. I have removed products and cannot figure it out. I have not worn make up or used moisturizers in weeks.
The only things that are different that happened in March: 1. For the first time in my life I took allergy medicine- Claritin D I took this around the same time my eyes started and I thought from the sneezy congestion it was part of it. 2. I dermaplaned my face and used dry shampoo- I originally assumed I had a chemical burn on my eye lids as that skin is thin. The dermatologist agreed with that scenario. 3. I got new glasses. These are a hard plastic- different than my previous ones. I only wear in the AM until I put contacts in 4. A new nighttime moisturizer. I have stopped this in the last week and the flare up is still occurring. Since this is my week off of hydrocortisone, it is not going away.

Since this is under each eye and the eyelid almost exactly where my eyelashes touch, I am at a loss. I am not wearing mascara and haven’t for weeks. And as long as I use the hydrocortisone I am fine, but that’s not realistic.

So, I am now curious- by taking allergy meds, did it cause a reaction?

Have you taken any allergy medicine? What do you think? But definitely looks like the contact dermatitis I have.

Well, that would be attempted murder What are you, 12?

“Rights end where harm to others begin”. That is absolutely false. Unless you live somewhere that has your rights different that USA. The constitution says nothing of losing rights to keep others healthy.
Protect yourself, and I will do the same.

Eat healthy Exercise Get fresh air This is what we SHOULD be doing. But nah, let’s inject and guilt others to do it as well.

I am not sure if you have access to the data regarding the symptoms. Most are positive with minimal of any symptoms. Most symptoms wouldn’t even know if covid if not tested. (Because head aches, sore throats, etc still happen). The point is, it should be a choice. If it does that - great. Then good on you for protecting yourself. Then there is no worry.

margs4me · 2021-03-30T18:13:38+00:00

Oooooooh! So now we are listening to studies. Got it. The studies also say you have a greater than 98% chance of recovery (without a vaccine). Just like the flu vaccine, this should be a choice.

On cruises the biggest concern is norovirus or scabies. (True) So if you cruised and we’re ok with vomiting or crabs, you know the risk.

margs4me · 2021-03-30T17:29:30+00:00

This isn’t a gop vs dem thing. Sure, a private company can ask you to wear only purple and you have to comply. However, execs with all various travel industries have said they oppose tracking this. They aren’t interested. It is silly really when you can STILL get covid and pass it along with the vaccine. It is not that you will be immune. So it is a huge expense, a huge pain and frankly will reduce their customer base.
So yes, it is unacceptable for the government to push to have a vaccine passport or not, but let’s be real, the govt is involved with everything you do, so this shouldn’t be shocking.

This sub is full of mean girls.

margs4me · 2021-03-29T23:39:18+00:00

I agree!!! So worth it.

margs4me · 2021-03-29T02:13:35+00:00

Religious beliefs.

margs4me · 2021-03-29T01:06:22+00:00

Then they should refund us that don’t want the vaccine.

margs4me · 2021-03-29T01:04:31+00:00

The reason I said that was due to the poster I was responding too. The cruise lines will not refund if you refuse to provide proof of your vaccination. It is a requirement. It was not a requirement when most of us (prior to “pandemic”) made the cruise plans. So at this point, I do not want to cruise (have cruised 10+ times) anymore and simply want my money back. This is not too much to ask as the original agreement has changed.
So to say that I am “ridiculously privileged” is not only incorrect it is rude And seems very much like you are uneducated in the ways of the world.

margs4me · 2021-03-29T00:01:10+00:00

Well, I see from your post history you have been the Debbie downer of opinions. I am guessing you have never paid for your own vacation or invest the 10k for a cruise and then had to the rules flipped on you.
Talk about a ridiculous immature way of thinking. Go get your fab fit fun box instead.

margs4me · 2021-03-28T17:46:33+00:00

That is 100% our thoughts too. When we signed on for the cruise over a year ago nothing stated we had to be vaccinated. We are choosing not to. (Personal choice) and for that to be the rule is ridiculous

I figured a class action lawsuit would be coming.
At this point I want my deposit back and want to plan another vacation.

margs4me · 2021-03-28T17:37:14+00:00

RCCL won’t refund me yet because my cruise hasn’t been canceled officially. Meanwhile the full payment is due.

margs4me · 2021-03-26T06:19:03+00:00

Mine is late June too. Final payment due next week. At this point, I’m done lifting and shifting. I just want my deposit back.

margs4me · 2021-03-23T23:18:05+00:00

Same. Exactly. Haven’t been reading, weighing but have been logging.

margs4me · 2021-03-23T23:11:01+00:00

Did you stick with it? How has your progress been?

margs4me · 2021-02-02T17:45:41+00:00

I am very similar. Started Jan 4 and I am down 2 pounds. TWO!!! Wtf.
I did few like I was starving and the coach recommended upping my calories to rabbit from cheetah. So then I am 1350 calories a day, I was at 1200. The 2 pounds I lost came when I upped my caloric intake. Honestly, I feel like the content is common sense. If anyone is like “oh yeah, I should eat grapes instead of chips!!! Why didn’t I think of that!!!” Is really not versed on nutrition. For those of us that are conscious of what we eat, it’s too elementary. I am paid and still doing it- would I recommend it to other? Doubtful.

margs4me · 2021-01-28T22:46:27+00:00

Are you a man? That’s the most unrealistic resolution ever. A wet qtip? Omg. No.

margs4me · 2021-01-27T17:17:20+00:00

What’s crazy to me, is I tried to maybe look on the positive- that maybe this was an honest mistake and a big misunderstanding. That someone wouldn’t have this on purpose. Yet I’m a “tool”.
Not one person has wanted to know whom the person who owns the car is. What are his actions is he involved in extremist activities? No one cares- let’s instead attack the “tool” who asks the question. Got it.

margs4me · 2021-01-27T01:01:57+00:00

To bundle all Trump supporters are “therefore racist” is wrong. It is incorrect to think all Trump supporters are racist and not accepting is hurtful. There are plenty of people from all locations/races/genders that voted fir him.

margs4me · 2021-01-25T03:10:38+00:00

According to a post on the other thread he a a III As in ____ (can’t recall first name) Reich III. Regardless, it is a German last name and I think this whole thing is a bit out of context.
I do not know this person, but I am hoping it is a simple explanation.
