  2. My name is Shelley O. I was diagnosed with Eczema five years ago. Shelley O.  I was diagnosed six years ago.   I live in Denver, so it is a very dry environment and makes it difficult when add Eczema on top of it.   My fun fact is I am a proud aunt to six nephews and nieces.

    1. : Hi Sarah I did not know how many people had Eczema.
      I have eczema for years but never on my face. I used to get it on my neck whenever I wore something new.
      I am a 80 year old grandma with seven wonderful grandchildren.
      I wish I knew what causes my flareup.
      To encourage everyone, I purchased Magna Life Eczema from Amazon and to my surprise it has cleared most of the red, scaly blotches on my forehead. Yeah I finally found something the works.

    2. It is mind blowing when you discover that there is an entire community filled with people living with eczema. I'm glad to hear you're not dealing with eczema on your face. Wow! 7 grandchildren. Do you get to see them often? Thanks for sharing about what has been working for you, it's helpful to note. I hope you will continue to come back and engage with us! -Sarah (AtopicDermatitis.net Team Member)

    1. Hi! Would you like to be part of the photo gallery? If so, send us a portrait, how long you've lived with eczema, and one fact. Let me know if you need help! -Sarah (AtopicDermatitis.net Team Member)

  4. Hello, all! My name is Putri M, I'm twenty one. I've had an eczema since I can't remember, but I guess it's about since I was three years old.

    A fun fact about me is that I'll be confused when I'm not in the flare-up phase because I'm used to living with eczema. You know, like something is missing in my life hahaha. I mean, our pain, our hardship or difficulty is precisely our strength~

    Good luck, all! God is good. <3 Sending a lots of love from Indonesia to all my fellow itchy people from around the world!


    *that pict is about few months ago a day after my routine check-up and after I got my ointments. I took that pict at an airport toilet. 😛
