Three months ago, when I was considering doing the steroid withdrawal, I remember reading a blog from a mom that went through the same process summarizing the first 3 months like living hell. Now, I know what she meant.
Catherine is almost a 7 year old girl that has been off Topical Steroid Creams and Protopic for six years. Catherine had eczema since she was 2 months and she was prescribed with potent steroid creams continuously for one year. Then, she stopped responding to the medicines and her skin got worse. She was suffering from Steroid Induced Eczema, not real eczema. That's the reason why we stopped steroids by October of 2013.
![]() Struggling with Catherine's worst flare up ever. Tough days because she hasn't slept for more than two hours for three days. My husband has been helping me a lot during the night. She has been very clingy and I barely have time to go to the bathroom. My three year old son is staying home to help me distract her during the day.
