Same Old Itchy Story

After having had a couple of manageable days after such a long stretch of bad ones, I'm in a bad way again. I have no idea what has caused the flare this time but I do know that it came on at about 10pm last night. The right hand side of my face went bright red and so, so itchy. I smothered myself in emollient ointment, white soft paraffin, took an antihistamine and off to bed I went. I woke up after an hour of not so deep sleep to find my face to be soaking wet. It was absolutely drenched with weeping skin. Mmmm. I was so tired that I just took a tissue and stuck it to the entire area so that it would absorb to the tissue and not my pillow. This morning I've woken up and my face is a bit grim. So yeah, not sure what to pinpoint as the culprit... and this is how it always is. I make diaries to document things I've done/ become exposed to, food I've eaten and my mood but there never seems to be a pattern. :(


 
 

Haha excuse the state of my hair. There's bed hair then there's my hair. Mental.

Documenting My Eczema 5th- 8th March 2013

So I'm back with my next installment of photographs from the 5th - 8th March. As I said last time, I apologise in advance for my facial expressions. Especially the one from this morning. I really struggled to keep my eyes open haha!

Morning of the 6th (seem to have forgotten to get one for the evening -oops!)

     Morning of the 7th : Evening of the 7th (Shane was making me laugh, despite the state of my skin!)

Morning of the 8th

So as you can see last night was especially bad for me and I have to retire early to have a nice relaxing shower/ bath and it's still not brilliant this morning. Hmpf.
