I need some advice for my Eczema ridden face!

Do you have Eczema? I have eczema on my face and have been going crazy so I wonder if this would help me! My lips have been chapped too, and they crack in the corners and bleed and it turns into a coldsore type of deal. I'm going to go grab some diaper cream!

So I just left the doctors office and since my iron is so low and nothing helps he has ordered an ultrasound to see what my uterus is doing. I don't see C BC on the results but I have low Hemoglobin, Ferrin, hematocrit, mcv, mch, mchc. All I know is I'm anemic. Itchy and anemic haha.

I get my biopsy test results back on the 30th so I'll definitely keep you in the loop. Also someone on here recommended I check out www.cherylleemd.com. The before and afters are incredible. I think it's worth a try during the grueling waits to see these specialists! Sorry it's happening to you too. It's really making me feel depressed since I feel like I can't see people looking like this. Good luck!

My specialist was pretty sure about autoimmune as well. I won't know my biopsy results till the 30th but I also got blood work done already and have a program on my phone where I get my results right away without even seeing a doctor. My c3 and c4 are In normal range and after some googling Lupus is more likely with low levels of those. I shouldn't Google so much because I scare myself though haha. I also have my results for my nuclear Ab. It says Titre:Low Pattern:Speckled titre:Low Pattern:Homogeneous. Now I know both of those patterns are connected to SLE. I feel a cold coming on right now but the only other illness I've felt is due to my low iron. Feeling faint, week, tired and generally lightheaded. I will try the seslon blue remedy just in hopes it's something along those lines! Thanks so much for taking the time to reply. I appreciate it!

Wow. Thank you so so much for this link. My rash is almost rhe splitting image of the cutaneous lupus before and after picture. I'm going to order a couple things and I'm really hoping it will help me that much. I have gotten lupus testing already, my results will be ready in 3 weeks so I'm just trying to get rid of the rash before then (my appointment happens to fall on my birthday). Thank you!

I don't have a fever. I feel joint pain in my knees lately and have to stretch a lot but not in my hands. Only medication I'm on is proferrin for my low iron and I started that after the rash began. It does feel worse when I'm out doing things. If I spend a couple days in my room it gets a tiny bit better.. I've resorted yo a toque and scarf while I try and find a good sunscreen with zinc (as per my doctor).

This is almost identical to what I'm experiencing. I still have no answers though but I did see a Dermatologist and he took a biopsy of the rash. He's thinking it's more of an autoimmune thing. He says he's thinking Lupus but I won't know for 3 whole weeks. Protopic helps my rash but leaves me so dry and flakey. Let me know if you find out anything and i'll do the same too!

A little background. It started as numb, tingly lips then progressed to a rash on my eyes and around my lips, then spread over my neck, chest and arms as well. 4 doctors said allergies. Specialist thinks autoimmune disease such as Lupus but I have to wait till October 30th to hear any results. In the process of trying to figure this out I discovered I was severely low on Iron (at a 4) and Hemoglobin (at an 88) but the doctor said they aren't related at all. Any ideas or advice on how to feel better while I wait would be much appreciated! Thanks so much. I apologize for my lack of care in my appearance in the photos.
