I've had the condition off and on for the last 6 years. It started when I worked in the food industry and was constantly exposed to different foods and soaps, etc. In 2008 I had my first child and have been a stay at home mom since (mainly) and I have also taken care of my niece since she was born in 2010. Last summer it really started flaring up and I haven't been able to get it under control since then. I've tried a lot of things and I know citrus is a major trigger. I read another woman's blog on Saturday night and she recommends eliminating all citrus/citric acid from the diet, as well as eliminating other foods that contain lectins. I think it's helping. So you may want to try that as well. It definitely is also an internal problem, not just the topical exposures. It's been comforting to know that at least I'm not alone. No one else in my family has suffered from this and it has been very hard, but as i search the Internet I realize that a lot of people suffer from this condition. Thanks for positing about this on your blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
