Healing Eczema and Cortisone Withdrawal Symptoms

In hope that we can help another-Doctors and Dermatologists are now finding their careless prescriptions of Cortisone to suppress the symptoms of eczema are affecting thousands of eczema patients world wide. This is the process of my partner who withdrew from steroids, as he ended up with Steroid Induced Eczema. There are many people who have looked beyond the narrow mind of our medical model and achieved a higher quality of skin without immunosuppressant drugs.

Acknowledgements

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.
