Life| Eczema Diaries V.1. C.1

Itching, scratching, being uncomfortable and more....I've felt it everyday for the past three years.
My arms are black. My face is brown and I've tried my best to fix it. Just fix it. I want my old skin back. The smooth chocolate that used to spread itself over shoulders and arms.

I have eczema and it's a pain in the neck, shoulders, and arms.

Gone are those velvety smooth days. Instead, I'm left with black scales that are rough to the touch and skin that flakes if you try to caress it.

I've tried quick fixes: creams, serums and pills. Nothing works...so, I'm going STRICT VEGETARIAN/PSEUDO-VEGAN which sounds crazy because of all that it means....

NO MILK/DAIRY PRODUCTS
NO CHEESE (mmm)     NO CHOCOLATE  NO EGGS
NO CHICKEN BEEF PORK (I am eating fish - just in moderation)
NO GLUTEN/WHEAT/CORN PRODUCTS (Soy in moderation)
NO OVERLY ACIDIC FRUITS

There's a lot of reasons why which I won't list here. The best site which details the main reasons is here.

If you have any tips/trick/words of encouragement, feel free to comment.
