Healing Eczema and Cortisone Withdrawal Symptoms: INFURIATED

INFURIATED

13.04.2012

I can't sleep because I'm furious that our Doctors, Dermatologists, Drug Companies and the Government are getting away with MURDER!!!
I am furious that Topical Steroids are being promoted in a good light and are ruining thousands of lives because of our narrow minded medical model.
Take a look at the below links

Steroid Creams Won't Thin The Skin of Kids With Eczema

Desperate For A Cure
This poor little girl has been slathered in Topical Steroids and CLEARLY IT IS MAKING HER WORSE

Another Horrifying Withdrawal Story
'In October 2011, I found out he had been arrested after an infant developed drug-induced cushing's syndrome. The authorities found corticosteroids in the cream he was distributing (which I was still using) and arrested him.'

Aye, and the more you look the more you see. If you look at any of the eczema support groups on facebook I think about 95% of the kids use topical steroids. There are lots of 'red' children who have incurable, full body eczema. One lot of lovely ladies decided on looking at boys pictures that I was a 'child abuser' and 'open to prosecution'. Attitudes need to change, and the changes are best made with the children, before the cortisone dependency starts. I veer through anger and disappointment. But every person that connects has the capability to reach out to another.

The proof is out there! I'm finding articles like this every day and they prove that steroids are poison. Our collective experience shows the damage they can do. Liz and Jake you are doing a great job telling people about this. Glad Jake is feeling so much better. He stopped the creams about the same time as me, so he is my "skin twin"!

We would like to send our hearts to the people who stuck by us and helped in Jake's healing.

We could not have done it without you x

Doris Were - (my mother) Clinical Nutritionist and father Robert Were

My parents took Jake into their home with open arms; cooked, cleaned, bathed and held Jake 24 hours a day. They gave so much of their time and love to Jake and I. You made all of this possible, and we are truly grateful. Thank-you xxx

Margo Field

When Margo consulted with Jake, Jake was in the worst stage of this process. Margo's loving nature helped Jake to accept the condition he had, and she gave us strategies to deal with this mental and physical pain as a couple.

Dr. Fred Swann

Fred has supported us both unconditionally. I can't even think of the words to thank Fred or explain how amazing he is. We love you Fred.

Dr. John Turner (& Super Team Members)

Coliban Medical Centre - It's hard to find people who genuinely want to help you and support your cause. This team is an exception, and have supported Jake in his rehabilitation with the utmost care and attention.
