I didn't want to threadjack the open letters post.

Do you get eczema on your hands?

Aw, Georgia!  That sucks!   I've never even heard of that before.

And I guess we have a new troll?

[QUOTE]My doctor said I have Granuloma Anulare. It basically looks like I'm covered in angry mosquito bites, and the first time I went to the doctor, he just said it was a viral skin condition and would go away with some Prednisone. Well, it almost went away, but not completely and when I went back, that's when he told me it was GA. He said it'd go away on its own in 3 or 4 months (awesome news for my cruise in three weeks), but online it says it could be 2 years, and this morning I read a couple of things where people suffer for years and years. Usually it's fine, but some things irritate it and it gets really inflamed (like a particular lotion that will be thrown away this evening). It's now on my arms and legs, but when it was really bad (when I went to the doctor the first time) it had pretty much covered everything but my chest, neck, and face. My mom had a milder version recently, so I've been using her steroid cream and I have some more Prednisone that I've been taking, but it doesn't seem to do anything. So I'm just rashy.

awww. I'm sorry.  That sucks.  I don't have your rash, but I constantly have one somewhere. Right now I have an awesome dry patch on my side.  Every time nick sees me scratching, he yells at me.

It actually makes me feel better that I'm not the only one with unsightly hands, but I mean that in a nice way, not a "ha ha, y'all have ugly hands too!!" kind of way.

Georgia, I had a rash that spread over my entire body that was misdiagnosed for almost 2 years.  I figured out on my own that it was a gluten allergy.  Maybe stay away from gluten for a week or so and see what happens?

Don't know if she's a troll, but its from a song about georgia peaches.  It's a pretty good song...

haha!

I get so self conscious.  I had a friend at work one time who saw my hands when they were peeling...and yes I know they get gross, but she freaked out.  I was like "thanks buddy."  As if I'm not self conscious enough about it.

HA!  I constantly yell at the dog to stop scratching.  And then DH yells at me to stop scratching in the same tone.

shellydiane820

Yep, that sounds about right.

I have eczema on my hands too.  If I don't take care of my hands, they can get REALLY bad.  Even when I do take care of them, they're still not completely normal.  I have to be really careful about getting cleaning chemicals on my hands, and I never use alcohol-based hand sanitizer because it would just kill them.  It's such a pain.

Good call, Tide. I might just do that and see what happens (but not today, as I've already polished off a bag of Sun Chips).

I originally thought it was poison ivy or something, because the first day it showed up, I'd been pruning bushes in my front yard. If only it'd been that easy.
