OOO sha babes, poor you !!

We all have days when P seems to get the better of us; hope you get the derm's appointment and some treatment soon. I know you're looking forward to UVB and hopefully that will work. Meantime, try protopic on face, it's fantastic and manages to clear mine in double quick time, I just get it along hairline. I also use Flawless Finish makeup by Elizabeth Arder, that manages to hide it too.

Try not to worry babes, sending hugs your way; catch you on MSN in a bit for a natter !

((Warm fluffy hugs4 u ))

hey try not to worry, one good thing about p is that, even though it shows up and makes us miserable, it also goes away and then makes us happy

so focus on that

I really like that quote and you are so right.

I know sometimes its hard to keep positive but what I do when I'm feeling down is think of all the good things in your life. And more important talk to people about how you feel, once I've had a chat with someone it always makes me feel abit better.

Hope this helps x

Heh Sha - Protpic is great for face I always have a tube of i in the house - You do need a prescription for it but a tube lasts for ages and it works quickly also on ears I had P on my ears and it cleared it. Hope you get your appt soon but if you feel you need one sooner than you getting I would contact them and tell them you are upset and could do with an appt as soon as possible maybe a cancellation or something. I have done this before - you have nothing to loose trying. All the best.......

Hello - face and ear P is a real pain. I'm sorry it is getting you down. Hopefully you can get it cleared up with some protopic. Although I was first prescribed protopic by a dermatologist, I have been prescribed it by a GP too (not on repeat prescription either). So maybe if you can't get a derm appointment soon, try another GP (just in case). It is a really good treatment for facial P.

Good luck x

Aw chick..
we all know that feeling. Im jut going through the face flare now. I always get it around my eyes. I also use Elizabeth Arden flawless finish and it is great for not drying up round any patches of P. It also lasts all day/night. I use Alphosyl cream on my hairline/ears/face. I've found it to be really good. Keep your chin up chick

Good to hear hat's you're feeling more positive. We all have our down days, the way to get through them is to acknowledge it won't last, come on here and share your feelings.
Keep the faith.

Its good to get things off your chest so rant away. I have P on my head, ears (inside and out), chin, face and its now starting to come out in the corner of my eye, all over my body and legs I use dovobet steroid cream sparingly just once a day and that helps but I have to shave my hair for it to do my scalp. Now wear light coloured clothes otherwise the dark ones show off the P and when your out some people don't think twice about making comments about your dandruff the other side of it is the P on my body bleeds quite a lot and i have medical problems one of which is low platelets that means my blood does not clot so any light shirts I wear soon get bloody. I don't go out much because I cant handle anymore the snide comments and the looks I get.

Hugs 4 u Balloo, I'm really sad reading your mail.

You can use protopic on your face and sensitive areas and it doesn't at all cause thinning of skin. Have you had UVB treatment in the past and has this worked for you? It's terrible that you suffer so and cannot socialise .. You must speak to your Doc, get to see a Derm and start some treatments that work.

Wishing you well
BB
