Natural Dyshidrotic Eczema Treatment

Living With Dyshidrotic Eczema

My Dyshidrotic Eczema Is In Remission Using This Natural Treatment!

In this article, I’ll give you a little glimpse of my experience in living with Dyshidrotic Eczema and how, by chance, my wife came across a natural Dyshidrotic Eczema treatment that finally worked.

Eczema, Dermatitis, Dyshidrosis.  Chances are, you’ve heard of these.  But what is Dyshidrotic Eczema and what are some successful treatment options?  Well for the last eight plus years I have been living with this skin condition called Dyshidrotic Eczema.  Who am I?  I am a 35 year old Firefighter/Paramedic, husband and Dad to two wonderful boys.  For over 15 years, I have worn medical gloves for my job, almost daily.  So naturally at first I contributed my skin condition to my daily use of these gloves although they are latex-free gloves.


What is Dyshidrotic Eczema?

The following is the definition provided by Wikipedia.

“Dyshidrotic Eczema which is sometimes known as “Acute vesiculobullous hand eczema,”is a skin condition that is characterized by small blisters on the hands or feet. It is an acute, chronic, or recurrent dermatosis of the fingers, palms, and soles, characterized by a sudden onset of many deep-seated pruritic, clear vesicles; later, scaling, fissure

s and lichenification occur. Recurrence is common and for many can be chronic. Incidence/prevalence is said to be 1/5,000 in the United States.

This condition is not contagious to others, but its unsightly nature can lend to awkward social interaction. The compromised integument can increase susceptibility to infection, and the accompanying itching can be a source of psychological duress.

The name comes from the word “dyshidrotic,” meaning “bad sweating,” which was once believed to be the cause, but this association is unproven; there are many cases present that have no history of excessive sweating. There are many different factors that may trigger the outbreak of dyshidrosis such as allergens, stress, or seasonal changes. Emotional stress may also

further aggravate the condition.”

What Causes Dyshidrotic Eczema?

The doctors I saw all said there are many triggers that seem to cause an increase in the flare-ups and you should try and avoid them:  heavy metals, exposure to harsh chemicals, frequent washing of hands, moisture, profuse sweating.  But the reality of it is most of us use our hands continuously, and as a Firefighter/Paramedic I am routinely exposed to just about everything they say to avoid.  Other things they said that may trigger it are allergens, stress, or seasonal changes. Apparently, emotional stress or even the weather may also trigger it.  It has been very difficult to know exactly what triggers mine.

My Dyshidrotic Eczema Symptoms

The symptoms of Dyshidrotic Eczema vary in severity from person to person but for me, at first it started out as a single spot on my thumb, but it continued to get worse and eventually covered the palms of both my hands and many of my fingers.  Basically, what happens was there would be small patches where the skin would get small boils and then multiple layers of skin underneath the boil patches would dry, peel away, and another layer would dry & peel away.  It was very sensitive and painful, aside from being irritating and looked bad.  It has also gotten to the point that it was developing underneath my fingernail beds.

Throughout the years, the Dyshidrotic Ezcema went through cycles that I couldn’t necessarily figure out what was causing it to start or what caused the cycle to end.  Most recently over the last 2-3 years, it never fully went away.  It also increased in frequency, eventually getting to the point where, after flareups, it never went back into remission and simply went from bad to worse during its cycles.

Traditional Dyshidrotic Eczema Treatment: Unsuccessful

Over the years that I’ve been dealing with Dyshidrotic Eczema, I have seen multiple Doctors including at least three different Dermatologist specialists.  My skin condition wasn’t even accurately diagnosed until just two years ago and when it was finally diagnosed, the last dermatologist still did what most of the others had already done:  prescribed steroid creams, and told me there is no cure and that the only thing that could be done is try and slow or prevent outbreaks.  Once again I was left with little hope, although at least now I had a diagnosis, which is more than all the previous Doctors could give me.  I am not a fan of steroids because they have terrible side effects and do long-term damage.  So, after trying the latest steroid cream with no results, I moved to other methods to at least try and deal with the daily discomfort.

Basically, I regularly wore gloves to prevent the peeling, cracked skin from catching or snagging on stuff.  Anything that had a rough surface wreaked havoc on my hands, even clothing lightly brushing against them.  I used lots of lotions in an attempt to provide relief; you name it and I’ve probably tried it.  My wife even made me sleep with bags on my hands after she lathered some kind of lotion on them.  It provided some relief the next day but that is it.  Sleeping with bags on your hands every night, ummm No!  I would do it only during the worst outbreaks and I hated it.

An acquaintance through a friend at the fire district was in to home remedies and several years ago she wrote down a few herbal supplements that I should try taking daily along with Fish Oil supplements.  Admittedly, I was not very consistent with taking the assorted remedies and there was only little to no relief with taking the Fish Oil supplements.  Eventually, I just came to the realization that I was always going to live with it and I’d just have to deal with the daily pain and discomfort that this Dyshidrotic Eczema brought me.

 

Natural Dyshidrotic Eczema Treatment: Successful!

In the summer of 2011, my wife, Tiffany, had started the family on 3 liquid nutritional supplements by Sisel International (Click these links:  SpectraMaxx, Eternity and FuCoyDon).  It was one of the many things she was doing to improve our family’s nutrition and ensure that we were getting the nutrition that we needed.  My wife was on a mission to no longer just lose weight but to get healthy through lifestyle changes.  So as the supportive husband I took the liquid nutritional supplements like she asked, not necessarily looking for any particular outcome.

Pictures of Dyshidrotic Eczema Before & After

My wife had high hopes, though, and took photos of my hands in mid-July to document their state for a “before” photo.  They were rough, peeling, and causing me a lot of pain.

These are very therapeutic liquid nutritional supplements that obviously had enough active nutrients to start repairing 8 years of damage.  After everything I had tried I really did not think these would be of any benefit for dyshidrotic eczema.  Well within about 3 weeks of taking 1/2 oz of each everyday, I started to notice my hands were getting better!  My skin was softer and the boils started to go away.  By the beginning of September, my hands were almost back to what normal hands should be.  They didn’t hurt, they weren’t raw, and I only had one spot that was left and it was mostly healed.  I was loving it.

During hunting season I was gone for 10 days, during which time I stopped taking the FuCoyDon and SpectraMaxx and let me tell you my hands were in bad shape by the time I got home.  The dust, dirt, sweat and roughness of everything you touch while out in the wilderness played havoc on my hands.  So when I got home I was determined to take the supplements everyday and not miss any.  Within a few days again my hands started to heal and a couple weeks later all the flare-ups were gone. The photos below were taken in November 2011, after about 3.5 months on Sisel International Triangle of Life products.

And now, at the end of January 2012 I consider myself to be in remission from the symptoms of terrible skin condition Dyshidrotic Eczema as long as I am taking the Triangle of Life regularly!  The photos below were taken this afternoon:

Before this, I had all but given up hope and I was certainly not looking to nutrition to help my Dyshidrotic Eczema.  The relief I have gotten has been a life-changing experience for me.  It was a tremendous blessing that my wife stumbled upon the powerful liquid nutritional supplements by Sisel.  The experience with my Dyshidrotic Eczema has been just one of the many benefits that come with taking the Triangle of Life and I am determined to share it with everyone I come across; particularly those who have auto-immune diseases and skin disorders like psoriasis and eczema.

Side-Note from Tiffany:

Over the course of the Fall 2011, Chris experienced tremendous relief for the first time, from his terrible skin condition Dyshidrotic Eczema.  He can tell a difference in the condition of his hands on a daily basis.  I have seen the difference in the texture of his skin for myself.  His hands are now soft and smooth and almost completely healed!  This is such a major improvement!  We couldn’t be happier with the results!

Dani Walker - The mental tole skin conditions take on a person is immense. I bet there is nothing better than being able to grab a towel without it grabbing you!

kyle - I too suffer from Dyshidrotic Eczema and have run the gauntlet of dermotogists. The only thing that cleared it up was a shot in the rump with steroids…not a good long-term treatment. So I am looking at your site and I have to say it looks sort of like a pyramid sales scheme, but you got my attention. There was no “Dyshidrotic Eczema Treatment” link on the web site, so what exactly, did you use to clear up the exzema? Was it one product, a mix of several products? Your story wasn’t real clear on these points. You said you “..drank 1/2 OZ every day…”, but earlier in the story, you mention 3 products; SpectraMaxx, Eternity and FuCoyDon. Please let me know – I can tell by the pictures (which don’t look quite as “angry” as mine) and your story that you can certainly empathsize with me on this.

Regards,

Kyle

Tasha - I have been suffering (quite literally) with dyshidrotic eczema for going on 3 years now. For me, it started out as a small patch on my right palm, then spread pretty fast through both hands. It started on my feet about a year and a half ago, and recently, under my fingernails. It is painful, to the point where I just sit and cry sometimes. I have tried lotions, steriod creams, Loma Lux for Eczema, dead sea salt soap and bubble baths… no relief to date. My cycles are as bad as the last two years were for you. It has never gone away. So you can see how I’m pretty much willing to try anything at this point. However, upon searching the Sisel International website for these products, I see that they are a bit on the expensive side, and I’m not exactly “rolling in dough”, if you know what I mean. Is there a place I could get them for a smaller price?

Avish - My Friend is sufering from the same deases as you described. but she has wet blisters on palm and sole both. deases starting with blisters and converting in to eczema.

Expecting your guideline

kimberly beier - i have been fighting with the pain, intense itching, and social awkwardness of this condition for 5 years now. and as you stated if it is out there i have tried it. i am a waitresss, bartender, and also do some janitorial work. my hands are always in water, and in contact with various chemicals. in the beginning i had some brief spells of relief but the never lasted long and for the last 2 years there has literally been no relief, it’s been like a two year long flare up. there are days when i would almost consider simply cutting my hands of the wrists. yes that bad! i have a 14 year old son who i love camping, fishing and swimming with, yet some days my hand are so bad i can barely hold a pencil or brush my teeth without intense pain, let alone baiting a hook, or setting up a tent! your story and information has given me hope, i plan to order these supplements and try them for myself, and i pray they will give the gift they seem to have given you……….thank you!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Kimberly!
Wow, thank you so much for the comment here. I am sorry to hear about your experience with this skin condition. It can really affect your life. My husband is a Firefighter/Paramedic and like you, his working conditions have him in similar situation as you with the water, chemicals. I am happy to talk with people more privately in email, if you wish. You may contact me any time: tiffany@taylorsforlife.com The best thing is that you may have some hope here!!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi there, Tasha!
I am sorry you are living with this condition, too. My husband is affected primarily by his hands although there are times when it has affected his feet to a certain extent. The way you describe your hands is a perfect description of his hands. It hurts and it’s raw. No steroid creams have ever worked for his dyshidrotic eczema, either. I will follow up by email with you regarding your particular question on price. Thanks! Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Hi, thanks for your comment. I’m sorry your friend has a terrible skin condition. Eczema can be a tough thing to live with. We can feel for what your friend is going through. If you have a specific question just let me know,
tiffany@taylorsforlife.com THANKS!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Kyle~ Thank you for your comment regarding Dyshidrotic Eczema and your feedback on my article. I am not a scientific writer. I am just a Mom and Wife who is trying to spread the word on products that have helped my family so if my article was a little unclear, I apologize. Sisel is a network marketing company although it is not a pyramid scheme – there are many direct sales companies out there (like Mary Kay, Tupperware). All I can tell you is that my family and I heard of these liquid nutritionals from an old friend who was able to reverse an autoimmune disease with these and I knew they could do something for us, too, so I ordered them. Once we had such good results, it made sense to me to become a Distributor for the company so I could start earning some part time income to help pay for the products. That’s how it worked!

We take all 3 of the liquid nutritional supplements. The dose is once a day for each supplement. The dose is different for adults or children.

I hope you will contact me again if you have more questions! tiffany@taylorsforlife.com

cyndi - hi tiffany.. i just had blisters for two days already in my hands.. i just researched these problems with my hands and thought its the same as Dyshidrotic Eczema. How can I prevent this?

Terri - I just ordred the 3 products under you Tiffany and I am willing to take them to cure and prevent this. I am just praying this is not a scam. Everthing I have tried and the treatment I have sought has not helped, so this is a last ditch, what the heck effort.

Tiffany Taylor - Terri,
We can certainly understand your being skeptical. We are not saying this is a “CURE” for anything. This is our story, mine and my husband’s and my 2 young boys. What you have read on our blog about my husband’s Dyshidrotic Eczema is his testimony to the powerful effects these liquid nutritional supplements have had for him personally, with his hands. Everyone’s body responds differently. I would give it 60-90 days of building up in your system before judging any results. We both surely hope this will “do it” for you and that you will find the RELIEF that you so desperately desire. My husband can totally relate. Best wishes and feel free to contact us anytime. tiffany@taylorsforlife.com

Chris - I suffer from Dyshidrotic Dermatitis in the summer when it gets hot. I have found a natural cure that works for me. I take Pantothenic Acid (vitamin B5) 1500mg once daily and Neem, two 475mg caps 3 times a day. I also take a B multi to assist with the absorption of the B5 and counteract any B imbalance. I also use a Neem Cream on my hands. I highly suggest that you purchase these items from a vitamin store and not from a gorcery store, so as to get the best quality. My Dyshidrotic Dermatitis is all but cleared up in less than a week. I would start with the dosage I take and go up if needed. No side effects from these supplements. Take with food!! Good luck.

Terri - Hi Tiffany,

Thanks for the info. I received my package last Friday and have been taking them daily. I tried emailing you, but I don’t know if it was swnt, so I thought I’d post on here. I have some questions for you and some may seem a bit stalkerish(LOL) but I am desperate to get this cleared up!

Do I take all 3 only once per day or more?
Do any of these help with weight loss?
Which do you give your kids? My kids are 9 and 6. Are they too young?
What kind of shampoo does your husband use?
What kind of bath soap does your husband use?
What kind of hand soap does your husband use?
What kind of hand lotion does your husband use?
What kind of dish soap does your husband use?
What kind of household cleaners does your husband use?
Did your husband use any steroid creams, etc. while taking Sisel products?
How long before he saw results?
Any other tips, lifesavers did he do?
Does he still wear gloves all the time?

I appreciate your response and I am optimistically happy!

Thanks,

Terri

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Terri! I sent you an email answering your questions! :) Tiffany

et - Hi Tiffany, I was just diagnosed with the same condition please can you answer Terri‘s questions for me too? Thanks

Tiffany Taylor - Good Morning, Belinda!
I’m sorry you’re dealing with Dyshidrotic Eczema!! What you describe on your skin has been what my husband experienced for YEARS. The oils and creams never did any good for my husband’s hands and he basically lost hope – thought he was just going to have to live with this terrible skin condition the rest of his life. That’s why he/we are so excited about what these products have done for him!!! You may purchase them online through our website by enrolling yourself as a “preferred customer” under my Distributorship. Go to: taylorsforlife.mysiselpro.com and click on “SHOP NOW” on the left-hand side of the page! Thanks for sharing your story!

Tiffany Taylor - Hello, wallah55! I will be happy to send you an email answering all the questions…it’s just too much to answer here in the comments section :) Thank you for your post!! Tiffany

Ray - I wish you would have answered Terri’s question on this site. I have the same problems as the aforementioned people. I have the same questions as Terri. Help!!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Ray! Thanks for the comment – I just sent you an email! Terri’s questions are great! I decided the length was too long to just type here in the comments section which is why I’ve chosen to email people back to answer them. However, it does seem like many people have the same questions and so my husband and I will be working on an updated blog post addressing Terri’s questions and more sometime soon! Thanks again! Tiffany

Keysha Goodman - Hi Tiffany. I too suffer from this painful condition. I would love to have the answers to the questions above as well as more information on the products your husband used. I will try anything to help this condition. I am in nursing school and am so afraid of how this may affect my career. Thank you in advance for answering these questions.

Ron Milanes - I have same problem with Chris, I have this eczema for over 5 years already. Clobetosol is not helping at all, wearing hand gloves to bed is really redicolous. I hope this new product that Chis had used could help. Please send me information or samples if you do have and let me know hoe to get it.

Shawnkeya Price - I am balling my eyes out right now from reading this story and all of your post… Here I was thinking i was all alone. I also suffer from Dyshidrotic Dermatitis. Im 21yrs young with two beautiful children and for the past 3yrs my life has been a constant battle, with the blisters and the peeling and the Pain. I cant even put my little girls hair in a pony tail without coming to tears. Was told there was no cure, but your story gave me hope! THANK YOU!!!!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Keysha!
I just sent an email. We can totally relate to how you’re concerned about your future profession when having to cope with this kind of eczema – my husband is a Paramedic/Firefighter so he knows firsthand how it affects things. Thank goodness there is hope!

Tiffany Taylor - Good Morning, Ron!
Thanks for your comment here! I just sent you some info! I wish the company offered samples – maybe in the future. Take some time to review the info I sent and let me know if I can answer anything else! Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Oh, gosh, Shawna!!!! I am so sorry to know you have this too! It’s the WORST! My husband dealt with it for what seemed like forever and had basically thought he was just going to have to live with it for the rest of his life – I hear you on the constant battle with the blisters, peeling, pain, and everything else that comes along with this Dyshidrotic Eczema because that’s exactly how it was for him. Thank goodness there might be some hope for you, too! Please let us know if you have any questions, ok? Best Wishes to you! Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Ron – I received an email delivery issue when I tried to send you the information. Could you please verify your email address with me? I’d like to make sure you get the info you’ve requested! Thanks, Tiffany

Austin - I’ve been dealing with this problem for close to a year now. It is only on my right hand. Started on one knuckle and has spread to cover almost the entire top of my hand. I went to a dermatologist and she had no doubt that it was eczema. She perscribed clobetasol which is a topical steroid. I tried that off and on for a couple months and it was definitely getting worse. I have become very self concious about the issue. I recently went back to a different dermatologist and he looked at for about five seconds and said that he had good news. Its ring worm. A fungus. Basically athletes foot. And the Clobetasol that I was using was going to make it worse. I’m on anti-fungal pills and it is getting better by the day. I’m in law enforcement and noticed the spot on my knuckle soon after I started using rubber gloves more often. I had all the typical symptoms of eczema. Even the tiny itchy blisters under the skin. Please get another opinion and rule out something as simple as ring worm. It was such a wonderful day finding out that something that I was planning on suffering with for the rest of my life will be gone in less than a month. Best wishes to you all.

Tiffany Taylor - Austin, Thanks for taking a moment to leave your comment! What a relief to know you don’t have to deal with Dyshidrotic Eczema! Yes, everyone should consider a 2nd opinion FOR SURE! Thank you for your service to our citizens ~ Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Chris, Thank you for sharing what has worked for you!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Cyndi! I’d have to recommend you see a Dermatologist to see about getting a diagnosis for your hands. Dyshidrotic Eczema is a strange skin condition and it varies widely in symptoms from person to person. My husband’s story on taylorsforlife.com has described what a difference taking 3 liquid nutritional supplements has made for treating his Dyshidrotic Eczema. Best of luck!

romelin - HI TIFF,NICE TO HEAR THAT YOU SHARE THAT SISEL FOR CURING THAT DYSHIDROTIC ECZEMA.WHERE CAN I FIND THAT????I NEED THAT FOR MY DAUGTHER.

Tiffany Taylor - Hi, “romelin” thanks for the post. “cure” is not a word we use because we are not doctors! However, we CAN tell you our story and how it has helped my husband treat his Dyshidrotic Eczema! There are links in the blog post where you can find out more information but to answer your questions directly, you can find the SISEL products here: https://taylorsforlife.mysiselpro.com/ and click on the big red, “Shop Now” button on the left. Best wishes! ~Tiffany

Katie - Hi tiffany, around february of this year i noticed blistering on my hands, and i could wear my engagement ring back then. And earlier tonight i noticed the small blisters on the soles of my feet, does this mean i have dishydrotic eczema?

Laura - Wonderful article! I must try those supplements.

I developed my Pompholyx Eczema after wearing blue Nitrile synthetic rubber gloves at work (the ones shown in your article). Since then, I am sensitised to everything I touch. Really not great, considering I work in a hospital!!

Up until now, antihistamines have been the only thing to help my skin condition…other than changing the type of gloves I use of course.

georgina - Where are you based? I am in Canada and want to know if i am able to get it over here?

Rem - Hi Ms. Tiffany,

I believe I have the same condition as your husband’s. I had this itchy fingers with blisters ever since the summer season started. They become so itchy that I’d scratch them and they crack up. The skin underneath my nailbeds are so swollen and broken that it takes like a few weeks to heal. When they heal, super small blisters grow out again, and the cycle starts again. I have been diagnosed with atopic dermatitis since I was a child, and I have been able to manage it through simple moisturizing lotions. But this one’s different, they itch specifically on my fingers. I don’t know if this grew out just because of the intense summer heat ( I was living on a tropical country before and this is the first year I experienced summer in the US) or just because of stress (working weeks straight, many bills to worry about).

I have searched for cures for dyshidrotic eczema and stumbled upon your website. I would like to give your product a try but it is expensive and it needs to be auto-purchased every month? Also, I would like to get answers from what Terri asked, specifically:
How many weeks before your husband saw the result?
Did your husband still use steroid creams while taking the ‘Triangle of Life’?

Your eager reply is highly appreciated.. :)

Tiffany Taylor - Hello, “Rem!” Thanks for the comment. I’d venture to be that Dermatologists do not have an easy job with diagnosing all these different forms of skin conditions! Many of them present the same or with just a few differences. It’s so frustrating not to understand what exactly brings on a flareup. None of the lotions or steroid creams ever worked for my husband. He has not used anything else for his hands since being on Triangle of Life. That’s why he/we are so happy with these liquid nutritional supplements and what they’ve done for his hands. The products do NOT have to be auto-purchased every month. You can bypass that part of the ordering form. He began seeing noticeable results within the first couple weeks although within the first 60-90 days or so, that’s when it was obvious to him that this really seemed to be working!!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Georgina! Sisel International is an internationally-seamless company. You can order from Canada and have it shipped to you. When you go to sign up, you’d just make sure you select your Country from the signup page! Best Wishes! Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Good morning, Laura! Working in a hospital you are on again/off again with the gloves, similar to my husband with being a Firefighter/Paramedic! I’m glad that changing gloves and the antihistamines seemed to help you. Everyone’s system is SO different and our bodies are so complex – nothing ever helped my husband until this. Let me know if you have any questions and I’m glad you ran into our site. Thanks!

Tiffany Taylor - Katie, that sounds awful :( It always makes me so sad to hear about all these other people who are experiencing the same types of things that my husband has endured over most of a decade. Since we’re not doctors it would be irresponsible for us to say whether or not you have Dyshidrotic Eczema. However, as a friend, I’d certainly have to recommend getting in to see a Dermatologist and ask the questions because there are so many different forms of these skin conditions. I hope you’ll be able to get your engagement ring back on, sweetie!! That breaks my heart!

Tiffany Taylor - Dear Blog commenters…I am sorry about the way these comments and answers do not seem to “line up” in a reasonable way. I am still obviously trying to figure out how wordpress handles the way I answer blog posts. When I answer a comment, it should show up right beneath the original poster. I’m sorry :( Any tips? Tiffany.

Andrew - My soon to be wife and loving mother of our 2 young kids is suffering from this as well. We are making very little progress in the way of a permanent solution to stop the next outbreak on her hands. Please also send me the email with answers to Terri’s questions (they would be greatly appreciated and would be required before we place an order for the product/s). Also, if you don’t mind me asking, has your husband been taking the product/s daily still to date? and how are his hands? Is this a long term solution or has the summer weather caused it to return. Please email me when you have the time.

Thank you,
Andrew@csbw.ca

Laurie Shinn - I see all these post mentioning hands but I have it on the soles of my feet and the palms of my hands. Im about to begin a regimen of narrow band uv phototherapy for my DE. I am at my wits end with this condition.

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Laurie,
Yes, many peoples’ hands are affected by this, but the soles of feet can also be affected! Good luck with the phototherapy – that’s one thing that my husband never (had to) try, but I hope it will start working for you!

Tiffany Taylor - Andrew,
I just emailed you with the info you requested. Tiffany

Natalie - Thank you for your blog. I just got diagnosed in March. It went into remission over the summer while I was off from work. But now that I’m back at work, it’s back. I teach orchestra students and it’s so embarrassing because I need my hands to demonstrate how to play, to fix how they play and to tune instruments. Kids call me Michael Jackson with my one white glove. It’s so depressing. I would love to know the answer to all those questions if you could email me. And the triangle of life meds are way out of my budget. I am having a hard time paying bills with all the pay cuts over these past years at work. I can’t afford even my insurance deductibles. Is there anything cheaper? I’m so sad.. And thank you.

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Natalie,
I’m sorry to hear you’ve got this, too! Like so many people, you’re experiencing all the ill-effects of living with Dyshidrotic Eczema – including the social discomfort and embarrassment. I understand that cost is always an issue. My husband cannot afford NOT to take them, though….and now that we’re distributors who’ve been telling our friends and family about the products, we have a lot of customers and so the cost of the Triangle of Life no longer comes out of our own pocket anymore – it comes out of the commission we get from the sale of products. It’s a Win-Win. We get to tell people about these awesome products, help people become healthier, and get paid for doing it so that we don’t have to buy our product anymore.

Kara Rowe - Hello:

I am very thankful for having found your blog! I really appreciate the time you have taken to share your husbands success.

I have just recently begun to suffer from this horrid disease. However, I do think I had very minor bouts in my 20′s. Recently the rash began slowly with one blister then it would disappear for months but then almost suddenly I would get patches the size of quarters and dimes on my palms, just below my fingers and more recently up the side of my fingers.

I live in a house with hard water and I suffer from hot flashes so there are two almost unavoidable triggers. My boyfriend has taken over washing the dishes and he he has bought spring water for washing my hands. However, showering is still difficult as water still gets inside rubber gloves.

It is a painful disease and emotionally frustrating. I totally look forward to one day being able to afford to take the supplements your husband has found life changing. At least now I have hope that there could very well be something out there that may help me to better live with this painful disease.

Regarding your blog comments, you may want to look at the contact form you’re using. My boyfriend and I are working diligently to launch a Mobile Advertising business and he uses WordPress and is quite familiar with its format. However, he said he couldn’t tell you more without looking at your back office. We are good people that you can trust. So, if you would like for him (Morris), to take a look just shoot me an email and he would be happy to help. Especially since you’ve worked hard to reach out and help others :)

Thank You!!

Sincerely,

Jessica - I saw the pictures and thought I was looking @ my own hands for a second!!!! I have dealt with DHE for nearly 30 years. I had it on my feet so bad, I had to use crutches on a few occasions! My dermatologist gave me a home remedy that helps. Fill a glass measuring cup or cereal bowl with 1cup warm water and 1teaspoon white vinegar. Soak hands or feet in this for five minutes at a pop. Use a soft, undyed, clean cloth and soak with solution for hard to reach places. Just use this as a compress. I still use an ointment at night during small breakouts… Just to make sure.

Tiffany Taylor - Jessica, Thanks for sharing your home remedy!!!

Tiffany Taylor - Kara, Thanks so much for taking the time to post your comments! We’re always sorry to hear that so many others have to deal with this persistent skin condition. I appreciate the offer of help for my WordPress blog comments :) I think I’m getting it figured out! Best Wishes!!

Angela - Hello! I hve suffered from this type of eczema for a little over two years. Steroid creams and jellies don’t seem to work. I live in Colorado Springs, too, which makes it harder because of the dry climate. I’m contemplating going to nursing school, but have been a little hesitant because of this problem. It’s mainly on my right hand and seems to only clear a little when I go to more humid climates. I’ve even had friends tell me to try a gluten free diet, which I haven’t yet, but may try soon.

I’m willing to try something new and natural, as long as it doesn’t “break the bank!” I also don’t want to go back to a dermatologist. I sent you an email, as well. Hope to hear back soon!

Vioke Violet - I never thought I’d be reviewing hand lotion. I have chronic eczema that returns periodically from hand washing. I have to say the Lady Soma Skin & Nail Treatment works great. I’ve tried other moisturizing lotions but they never worked. I don’t know what Lady Soma’s secret ingredient is (maybe the vitamin E), but this stuff heals my chapped hands after using it for like twice a day for 2-3 days.

I also use it anywhere on my body I have eczema or irritated skin. Excellent healing/soothing qualities.

Vioke Violet - I have a type of eczema on my hands & arms that stings with any lotion I put on it, it itches horribly, and even if I avoid washing my hands too much/doing dishes or certain foods (sugar) I still get it (thanks to hormones). So, I thought I’d try Made From The Earth Aloe Jojoba Creme Therapy and let me tell you-IT WORKS! I’ve been using it for over a month now and it’s like 90% gone-I just had a flare up (due to high stress, no doubt)…so it doesn’t erase it completely but WOW-I’m not up all night scratching and having to suffer with scaley, scabby hands any more! :)

Miguel - CHRIS, (you can scroll up to see his previous post) I took your advice and used Neem supplements, Vit B and Neem balm, IT WORKED. It’s been less than 2 weeks and most of it is gone. I just had to say thank you! I’ve tried clobetasol, cortizone, etc, nothing but this worked and I’ve painfully suffered from this dyshidrotic eczedma for 2 years.

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Cindy! I just sent an email to your address. Thanks for contacting us!

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Angela,
I just sent you an email from our website. It will show up from tiffany@taylorsforlife.com Thanks! Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Thanks for sharing what is working for your Dyshidrotic Eczema!

irish francisco - Hello everyone,

I have the same symptoms that I started to notice a week ago. It started on my toes. I woke up in the middleof the night being bothered by the itch. The next morning,i saw my toes with small blisters and were extremely itchy. i used clotrimazole and hydrocortisone cream but did not help significantly. now i have been prescribe with a potent steroid cream.
i live in northern ontario so the weather helps relieve the itch, but whenever the temperature gets warm then it starts to be itchy.
few days after i notice that it started on my fingers.
My feet and hands feels tight in the morning too.

Can somebody give me their best and honest advise on how to manage this condition? Thanks in advance!

disha patel - I have been suffering from the dyshidrotic eczema for about 3 years now. I have been tired of battling my condition an what makes worst is I only have one fully functional hand….(My left hand has genetic disability). At times I have been really depressed and thought to myself why me. I wish there was any cure for this condition..:(

Patricia McCarthy - Hello, I had dyshidrotic eczema when I was a teenager and cleaned greasey fryolators at a restaurant with harsh soap. I was treated w/tar soaks, steriod cream, antihistamine with good effect and of course I stopped the job. Later as an adult I entered nursing school and with all the handwashing and stress it returned. I am still a nurse and still suffer with this. With a once daily use of steroid cream it is much more tolerable. However, it is never completely gone. I wonder if your treatment would actually cure it. What is it’s cost. This is even more important to me as my daughter and son have also inherited this from me. And even worse my son also inherited psoriasis from his Dad. Do you know if this has any effect on psoriasis. Again very interested in the cost.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

Clifton Brumbaugh - I first was diagnosed with dyshydrotic eczema when I was in the Navy 9 years ago.It get so bad on my hands and feet it makes it difficult to work and take care of my 3 year old son. Im so depressed, I even called off work today cause its so bad. I dont know what to do. i want to almost cut my hands and feet off. I hide my eczema from my family and coworkers cause I dont want them to think differently of me and leave me behind. the only family i have is my girlfriend of 5 and a half years and my 3 year old son Niklas. What should I do????

Josh - Hey there – Im 18 years old and from what i’ve researched, i have Dyshidrotic Eczema. Im looking for treatments to stop it before it gets out of hand, but you guys don’t distribute to Australia! :(

Tiffany Taylor - Thank you for your comment! So many people are suffering from this terrible skin condition! I sent you an email with information which I hope will be helpful for you to look into something new that might work for you. Blessings, Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Disha, Thanks for commenting on our blog. We’re sorry to hear you’re struggling with Dyshidrotic Eczema like so many others. Your experience is unique in that you do have only one fully functional hand on top of having to deal with the Dyshidrotic Eczema, too. We, too, wish there were a cure for this condition. My husband has found the three liquid nutritional supplements mentioned on this blog to be the only thing that has ever helped long term with his Dyshidrotic Eczema.

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Patti,
UG! It is always so upsetting to learn about all these wonderful folks who suffer from these skin conditions!!! Using steroid creams daily to get to a “tolerable” level is still so sad. While there is no “CURE” for Dyshidrotic Eczema, my husband has had wonderful results by using the Triangle of Life, as reported in our blog here. I’ve sent you an email with more info. Best wishes for you and your family!! Tiffany and Chris

Tiffany Taylor - Clifton, thank you for your service to our Country. We’re sorry to know how this is affecting you and my husband can completely relate to the feelings of helplessness that this Dyshidrotic Eczema can stir up. When you feel like you’ve tried everything and nothing brings the solution you desperately desire. We encourage you to investigate natural, alternative treatments which may help you! I have sent you an email detailing more info on these liquid nutritional supplements which my husband has found to help him with his Dyshidrotic Eczema. Many blessings to you, your girlfriend, and sweet son. Tiffany

Tiffany Taylor - Josh, I will try to get an update on Australia, for you. Thanks for your comment here, and the best of luck in researching natural treatments for Dyshidrotic Eczema! I pray that you won’t have to deal with this as long as my husband did. Be sure to get a proper diagnosis from a Dermatologist, ok? Hang in there! Tiffany

varices - I don’t know what is this dyshidrotic eczema but i am sure this can be treated right according to your statement here.

Rose - Hi,
I’ve only just leaned this is what I have, I’m now avoiding chemicals used to clean my desk at work. I think finding a natural remedy is the way to go. Although I have not tried this combination I have been using emu oil (especially before sleeping) concentrating on the badly effected areas then during the day make sure I always keep moisturizing, preferably with an aloe vera one. It takes time, I’m 2 weeks and it has definately subsided, now and I have less blisters and peeling areas. I’m not sure emu oil is available outside Australia, but avoiding the chemicals and the emu oil seems to have really helped me out.

Cheri Harrell - I was first diagnosed with psoriasis of the hands and feet (just a visual diagnosis) and went through unsuccessful treatments. Then I changed dermotologists. The new doctor took a biopsy from my feet and the results came back as dyshidrosis. I don’t get fluid blisters like others describe. Mine come up like white dry patches, then get bigger, get scaley and painful cracks in my skin develop. It affects only my hands and feet.
When Mr. Taylor described his frustration hearing the same old thing from the doctors, I identified with what he was hearing. It was what I have been hearing. I sure am ready to try something else.

Anna - are these products safe and effective for younger people- my sons that are 12 and 13 1/2 both suffer from severe bouts of dyshidrotic eczema. Even have had to miss numerous school days due to such bad flare ups that holding a pencil is not possible :( -thanks for the info– all dr. treatments have been unsuccessful-

Tiffany Taylor - Hi Anna,
Yes, the products are safe for “younger people” and our own children (ages 9 and almost 6) use them. However, the Eternity comes in 2 choices: one with an energy blend (Eternity) and one without (Essential Eternity) – for obvious reasons, we do not give our children the one with the energy blend! :-) tiffany@taylorsforlife.com
