RE: On how I became an social Internet invalid

in #health5 years ago

You have dyshidrotic eczema, or pomphylox. There is no guarantee, but some people see improvement with diets that restrict nickel, cobalt and chromate. You might give that a try. Can't hurt. Best wishes!

Yep, the symptoms do match, however for me it is all part of my genetics.

I've got a son-in-law and three grandkids with a novel gene mutation that requires them to take multiple shots each day of an IL-2 blocker, anakinra, so I understand what a bitch genetics can be. Hopefully your doctor finds the right treatment. Best wishes!

You must mean IL-1 blocker, I did a quick web search.

Yeah, it looks like the new medicine the doctor mentioned to me is also an interleukin blocker too. In my case it's a dual inhibitor that blocks both IL-4 and IL-13. It might be effective... But since the drug is so new, it costs an arm and a leg.

I hope it either gets cheaper, or that cryptos become default world currencies soon, either way might help me.

Thanks for the encouragement. :)

That's the one. My daughter just got a shipment yesterday, boxes and boxes on the porch with coolpacks to keep the temperature dcuring shipment. They have four in the family on the shots, several times daily in some cases and, yes, it is quite costly.
