HAVE YOU TRIED THIS?...

Hydrocortisone 
Eumovate
Advantan
Dermol
Aristocort
Locoid
Diprosone 
Prednisone Oral steroids- Many rounds of this 
Antibiotics for infections

Natural products or other things tried:
Calendula cream
Xma Ease
Manuka Paint
Pot of Gold
Coconut Oil
Aveeno
Paw Paw cream
Various tincture drops and creams to help relieve itch
Oatmeal baths
Salt water from the beach..worst thing I did! I can still hear his scream to this very day

*This year we have been working with a naturopath, dietician and also an eczema clinic in Auckland.Click here to see Lisa Welbourne's Roguh Patch F.B page We are currently still 
working with Lisa and she has been so supportive, caring, honest and ultimately wants to 
see Oscar well again like us. 

To date Oscars allergy tests tell us he is allergic to
Dairy, eggs, soy , wheat, peanuts 
Dogs, cats, dust mites, tress, grass, 

He has also had an IgG test which measures intolerances 
Out of 92 foods Oscar is reacting to nearly all of them, infact his safe foods are as follows
Meat
Chicken
Coconut
Fish
Berries
Bananas 
Apples
There are many foods Oscar can still have that he had low to medium reactions to but these are on a rotation system so the foods don't build up in his system causing flares.

Supplements Oscar is on:
Omega Fish oil 
Slippery Elm
Vitamin C
Magnesium Powder
Magnesium Spray
zinc drops
Olive leaf drops
Eczema Shield
D3 drops
Oscar also has daily antihistamines
We use children's borage therapy as a moisturiser 
The next step is to put Oscar is Immunosuppressant drugs- this will dampen his immune system and help him from flaring to pretty much everything. The specialist believes Oscars allergies are not real and that he just has an overreactive immune system..I'm not so sure I agree, I guess time will only tell!

  1. Hi Cherie,

    What allergy test Oscar has done? We had skin prick test done for our DS, which only showed positive reaction (allergy) to dust mite, cat and dog. No food allergy at all! However, I am pretty sure that he at least has allergy or intolerance to Diary and possibly something else. I want to get to the bottom of the trigger and want to get it confirmed.

    Appreciate if you can let me know the test or tests you have done for Oscar? Thanks heaps.
