    Yeah... I'm pretty sure that it is the devil. Anyone else get it?

    I get it from both dairy and soy. Fucking allergies. Especially since I'm a vegetarian. Oh well, who needs protein? :p

    Anyway, it really is the devil as I'm sure anyone else who has it will agree with.

    I had it really bad when I was a kid. I was about 6, and I had to spend the whole summer in long sleeves or else be stuck indoors. Blech. I don't get it any more, but the skin on my arms are still really really sensitive and I get rashes really easily. But I feel for ya, eczema is waaaay worse than a regular rash. Do you have anything that helps it? Any sort of cream or something?

    If it's the Devil I was married to one of his concubines.

    It is a skin condition that is this ultra dry, scratchy, painful, hideous looking rash that cracks and bleeds. It is most often caused by allergies. I have a couple patches on my leg, on my face and on my ass (yeehaw!) :p

    I have cortizone and that stops the itching. I just need to stop eating dairy and it would go away so that is what I am trying to do, but it's hard. Rice milk all the way!

    I'm glad yours went away though. Hopefully it will stay away!
