The rash came back

[Rising Phoenix]

good news is we caught it early and were able to contain it, and we found out what it was from. Deodorant allergy.....can you believe deodorant almost did me in :wtf: Bad news is I'm back on massive doses of steroids which is clearing it up but the roid rage is a bitch.....Otherwise all is well...missed you guys and should be around more when I feel a bit better. In the mean time I bought myself some books and movies and paints to keep me occupied all those sleepless nights. And as a treat to myself when I'm better I'm getting my new tat at the end of march. I asked my doc first and she said it shouldn't be a problelm.... :hi:

1. You thought it was a goner but the rash came back?

Sorry to hear that.

2. Wow! What do you do now in place of the deodorant? (Not that it's the highest

priority you have, lol, but I am just curious)

3. good question

I have to go without for about a month and then the doc thinks I shoud be fine with dove sensitive skin.....if for some reason that is a problem I will go to the derm for extensive scratch tests to find out what exactly in the deoderant is making me sick and find a suitable product

4. Good luck. I hope you can find something suitable yet safe!

5. that is the only deodorant that I can use.

besides the ones at health food stores. I haven't had a problem with Dove. When I used stuff like Degree or Secret I got horrible rashes.
