Glucosamine

Never posted on any forum before. Am 44 male, suffered on and off since I was born. My arch nemesis is laundry powder (specifically SLS/SLES) and I found out the hard way in 2012- horrific whole body flare which took me two years to work out what the issue was (my doctor even prescribed me cream with sulphates in). Took two years to clear after working out. Generally clear until 2021 until my wife swapped detergents (by this time I could tolerate certain SLES - not SLS detergents), and it just ruined me - I feel so bad for me then - was so soul destroying. So, in late 2024 I’m here writing this, with such huge optimism. I’m very much site that a lot of you can imagine the pain of spending 2-3 hours a day medicating with creams etc and often having the itch that just burns - right!? Anyway - to my point - I was really down a few weeks ago after another steroid prescription that didn’t really work and the side effects were horrible. As I always do - I googled supplements that may help and I ended up buying Glucosamine- and have been taking 1500mg daily and honestly, I’ve changed nothing else - and my eczema has virtually disappeared. It’s mad - it’s amazing. Even the really bad sores that I scratched to death. I’ve still got one or two but it is incredible. I’ve done a bit more reading and apparently there was some promising research on this a few years ago but it doesn’t seem to have been followed up. Look - I’m posting this as a personal journey - if you see it and it helps you - that’s why I’m writing. If it doesn’t help you - I know how hopes can be dashed - stay strong and giving love.
