The Anti-Fungal Skin Cream

Nail fungus starts on the skin as athlete's foot. Support successful treatment and prevent the reoccurrence of future infection with our anti-fungal skin cream.

You know, I reckon charr would go wild for some tasty Nayos Meat-Mycelium Stew.

I think I sense a business opportunity here.

Crackpot Theory about Nayos' Meat Tendrils

So, the meat vines. Something that in SotO's release seemed to be just a fundamental part of the realm, showing up wherever Nayos's influence was strong. However, when we finally journeyed to Nayos proper it turned out that these tentrils weren't a natural part of the realm, and only showed up where the land was degraded, drained dry of magic by Eparch.

So, my speculation is that these 'vines' are literally part of his body, his form growing and spreading through Nayos and beyond like a cancer. So, all the red vines we see are just outgrowths of Eparch reaching forth to consume the collected magic.

Or maybe not, maybe they're just plants/animals (planimals maybe?) that thrive in degraded areas where other Nayosian species cannot, who knows.

How would you seduce podiatrist Larys?

I think the girlies need to hear this!

Oops! Here's a short story for you.

Title: Dr. Strong

Pairing: Modern!Podiatrist!Larys Strong/Female Reader with foot fungus

You were surprised that the student health plan at Westerosi University had coverage to see an on-campus podiatrist. It was disappointing not to have dental insurance, but your current dilemma involved your toes, and not your teeth.

Your mother drilled it in your head before leaving for school.

Make sure you always wear your shower flip-flops. Those communal bathrooms are bacteria mines! Her voice echoed in your brain as you made your way into the small, brightly lit office where a handsome, muscular, curly-haired receptionist sat, his eyes glued to the computer screen in front of him.

Of course, your mother was right. One time. One time without shower shoes and your big toenail on the right foot turns a shade of Simpson yellow.

Foot fungus. You were sure of it.

And it was your resident advisor who suggested taking a visit to Dr. Strong's office down at the student health clinic.

You hand your ID to the receptionist. The silver rectangular nametag had HARWIN written in bold print. His large hands point to an empty exam room to his left. "Room 4. My brother will be with you in a minute."

The posters with graphic images of foot diseases along the walls made you queasy as you make yourself comfortable, sitting down and taking off your socks and sneakers.

As promised, Doctor Larys Strong entered the room not 5 minutes later, his greasy curls falling over his eyes as he limped towards you.

You felt a pain in your heart, seeing his struggle as it came to your understanding that this job must be personal to him.

"Good afternoon. I'm Doctor Strong. And you must be Miss Y/LN."

"Y/N is fine." You smile, his blue eyes shining brightly as he returns it.

"So what seems to be the problem today?" He flips up the chart in his hand, clicking the back of his pen, already jotting down several notes.

"Well... um..." You place your naked foot onto the stool provided in front of the chair, flexing your big yellow toenail.

His eyes divert to the ground and his cheeks seem to redden.

"Oh god... It's bad isn't it?" You panic. You knew it. Your toe would have to be amputated.

"Well-" Doctor Strong begins, leaning down, carefully supporting his weight on the wooden cane he carried with him. "It's definitely not ideal."

A tear rolls down your cheek. "Are- Are you going to chop my toe off?"

Larys' eyes shoot up to meet yours, carefully examining your expression, unsure if you were being serious. "Chop it-? No! Of course not. I'm just going to prescribe some anti-fungal cream and advise you to keep your feet dry."

"Oh thank god." You breathe out a huff of air you hadn't realized you had been holding.

"Might I be so bold?" The doctor interrupts your thoughts. "As to mention that yellow is my favourite colour." He smirks, causing you to chuckle, a tiny snort erupting from your nose as well.

"Oh..." You twirl your ankle around, examining the infected nail. "It's actually... mine too."

Your heart flutters has he takes your heel in the palm of his hand. "I feel like your gentle foot would benefit from a massage."

"I don't know if my coverage-" You begin.

"It would be on the house." He replies, his nose pressing against the skin and taking a sniff.

You're surprised by his actions, but you admit that the attention feels nice. Cinderella had always been your favourite Disney movie growing up, and though your sneakers were no glass slippers, you had still found a prince.

"Would it be possible if I could take some pictures of your feet... for the medical journal I am publishing, of course. Some before and after shots of the treatment progressing." Larys asks, and you nod shyly as he pulls out his phone.

Your foot still rests in his hand, as he snaps a few pics. Moaning as he does so, causing you to raise an eyebrow.

"Is everything okay?"

He nods. "I've had many patients walk through those doors... but none with feet so... immaculate as yours."

He puts his phone away as he finishes, quickly jotting down some more notes and handing you a prescription pad.

"Apply this cream twice daily and we should start seeing results within the next couple of weeks."

You nod, as he holds out his free hand to help you from the chair. "Follow the instructions closely. We don't want to risk the infection spreading... though a pop of colour isn't the most... horrible thing..."

You feel your face heat up with embarrassment and flattery.

"I would like to schedule you in for another appointment 4 weeks from today."

4 weeks? Could the throbbing between your thighs wait that long for your feet to be touched again?

"Yes, Doctor Strong."

"Please, call me Larys."

This South American plant/herb is also known to be an antiviral, antibiotic, and anti-fungal.

related to the daisy - has round, yellow flowers with dark red spots in the center that are actually clusters of many tiny flowers.

grows about a foot wide and a foot high is an annual in most areas.

used as a topical pain reliever for toothaches and many other things

also made into tinctures or creams used as a natural botox as it relaxes worry lines and helps to smooth out skin wrinkles. i need to plant me some of this!

often called buzz buttons because of the numbing buzz they cause when you chew on them.

Skin update

Skin is getting better. My face is inflamed but I cannot use steroids on there. So I'm going to continue with my seb derm routine, zoryve, limiting my exposure to allergens (I spent less time with my dog today because I was out and spent most time in my room), and allergy shots.

I am not experiencing itchy hives today, again, because I'm avoiding allergens. No anti-histamines today. I had sourdough bread and walnuts, no itchiness.

One thing that I'm happy about is that the rashes on my right wrist, forearm, neck and chest are gone (thanks to clobetasol). There is a cut on my left palm I'm waiting to heal. The back of my right is a tiny bit red and bumpy (gets itchy hives too). Thankfully my hands are not as itchy, and I don't feel like I have to rub them in hot water like before (haven't done that in almost 3 weeks since I applied clobetasol).

I will have to take prednisone before my second set of allergy shots, which should help with my facial inflammation.

My ears are better and are less oozy. I applied diluted vinegar and antibiotic ointment on there and am applying some desonide to it. I'm still following my seb derm routine and applying zoryve, since deb derm can target ears and killing the fungus and reducing the inflammation is essential. Open wounds can create a habitat for bacterial and fungal infections.

My left palm no longer oozes. It hasn't in a while anyways.

I am getting hives and scratches on different parts of my body. I know I'm having an allergic reaction. Thankfully the hives disappear quick, the scratches take longer.

So overall things are much better. I'm so happy. Clobetasol isn't super safe but it does get rid of inflammation. Mine is a lot better and hasn't gotten worse (except my face maybe but I cannot use clobetasol there).

I know stress is another contributor to my skin inflammation. So I'm manage that as well. There are times where I am stressed or when I wake up first thing in the morning and I'm itchy. I don't know if this is because of cortisol or histamine (both are highest in the morning). There was a circadian rhythm/histamine interaction I remember learning about in college. I forgot what the pattern looks like, I just know that histamine levels can change throughout the day as a result of the rhythm.

Stress does raise histamine levels. Based on my bloodwork I have eosinophilia, high IgE levels, and normal high histamine/mast cells. This can be caused by genetics, stress, and for sure allergies.

I cannot do anything about genetics, I can do a lot about allergies and stress. Allergy shots can help and so can anti-histamine/anti-inflammatory medication. Stress relief is also essential here. I do notice I get itchy when I'm stressed.

My face area, mouth, eyes, and ears to burn when I apply creams on there. So I need to continue with my seb derm routine and the zoryve (anti-inflammatory medication). I know the prednisone pill will help with that as well.

For now my face is the trickiest thing to tackle because I cannot apply strong anti-inflammatory medication there because the skin is thin and delicate compared to skin below the neck.

Horseweed (I misnamed it horsetail on the stream, my apologies, there is also another plant with that name that I will post about as well!)

DISCLAIMER: ANY PLANT HAS THE ABILITY TO CAUSE ALLERGIC REACTIONS SUCH AS CONTACT DERMATITIS AND ALLERGIC RHINITIS. If you are allergic to a plant in the same family, it is advised that you use caution when handling and using the plant in question.

Firstly, what is it and what are the benefits of this fabulous plant? Well, this weed is commonly found across the Northern and Southern Americas and has spread elsewhere to places like Europe, Asia, and Australia. Thankfully along with its wide availability, it is also full of health benefits with a yummy taste included!

Some benefits include antibacterial, anti-fungal, and carminative properties (a fancy way of saying it helps relieve gas). Also, it treats diarrhea, hemorrhoids, and menstrual irregularities. An awesome bonus is that it is said to treat an array of skin problems including eczema, and ringworm, among others as well. This usage was found primarily in African cultures and (so far) I haven't been able to identify what properties aid the skin problems. [It also may be an effective way to treat herpes, boils, and bites but use with caution as I haven't found more detailed info on those claims.]

Recipes!!

Horseweed Tea:

The ratio of plant matter to water when making a tea is going to vary amongst what your overall preference would be as far as potency of benefits and flavor are concerned. A great idea is to fill a heat-safe container with the leaves and cover it with boiled water, steeping overnight. To get the most out of the plants, allow the hot mixture to cool at room temp before storing it in the fridge to steep overnight.

Horseweed Syrup:

For this, all you'll need is your previously mentioned tea mixture and sugar of your choice! Add a 1:1 ratio of sugar and tea to a pot and bring to a boil. From there, simmer it until it becomes your desired consistency.

If the syrup is added to carbonated water it will have a flavor similar to that of a combination of cream soda, Dr. Pepper, and root beer - BUT MEDICINAL!

personal/med update

My brain is fried mush right now. I survived my disability hearing on Tuesday. It was definitely informal, a little intimidating, but I feel I got through it well enough. My attorney said it’s a toss up because this judge is extremely professional and won’t give any indication and he sure didn’t. The vocational expert narrowed me down to like 3 jobs, then 2, then 1, then 0. I felt that was a good thing? Like am I not disabled if I can’t do any jobs? Either way, my age is working against me so we shall see. It’s very strange that you can be completely disabled and unable to work, but not by US law so they won’t provide aid. Blegh. Gotta wait another 1-3 months for his written decision. ._. Last Thursday, I noticed I had a ‘spot.’ I call them spots b/c I have eczema but I also had a bad ringworm infection in 2015 and called them spots then. Red spots that turn into rings. Anyway thought it was gonna be eczema but by Friday I was covered in many more. Cue me having multiple meltdowns about it interfering with my hearing if it got too bad lmao It didn’t, but it is bad! I had 49 ringworm spots as of last night and they grow in number by day. So, I went to see an NP b/c my dr couldn’t fit me in. Went as well as every other medical professional interaction has, which was terribly, and left me in tears and feeling beat down yet again by the medical field. She wants disabled me, who was bedbound for eight months and currently in PT to recover, to put cream on 49 spots and counting. With IIH and nerve damage that limits my movement and ability to stand for longer than 10-15 min. But she kept interrupting me and wouldn’t let me explain any of this. Her notes said ‘she is not usually terribly active’ so I guess being bedbound translates to that somehow??? She also said I had 3-4 spots on my breasts which is not what she was told by me or what her MA wrote down. lmao so guess who had to message her pcp again!!!!!!!! A completely healthy person can’t be expected to put cream on 49 spots 2x a day. For me, this involves washing my skin since I am unable to shower every day cause of the whole disabled thing. She said a lot more bullshit about my swollen feet and fatigue, so basically I got zero help. It was barely a 10min appt. Fucking hate them, I swear. She refused to give me the oral anti-fungal cause of my other meds, but my mom asked the pharmacist today and she said I’d be fine to take it. The pharmacist asked, unprompted, if an NP, urgent care or ER doctor said no to the oral pill and my mom was like YES! And she said they don’t understand it and won’t give it despite it being used every day even for yeast infections and athlete’s foot. She said her friend went through this shit too trying to get the oral pill. Back in 2015, I suffered this infection for 5mos while applying for health insurance/getting approved/waiting for a pcp because no NP, UC or ER doctor would give me the oral med lmao I saw my new pcp finally and he was like uhhhh no here’s a prescription for it you have way too many spots to worry about putting cream all over your body. Y’all I had been washing my sheets, towels, clothes, taking apple cider vinegar baths, soaking my spots in ACV, then applying one of five or six otc and prescription creams EVERY DAY. I spent two hours twice a day in my bathroom. Ringworm was what I did every day all day for five fucking months. I cannot fathom doing that again. It’s insanity. I was close to a mental breakdown and I only had MH issues back then, none of the physical stuff. I hate it here man Also why do I keep having shit happen every time I turn around. No idea why my feet are swelling, no idea why I have this abnormal fatigue that makes me teary because I sit here and stare at my screen unable to think of anything else but how tired I am. Like for long periods of time. She said to talk to my psychiatrist about it HOOOOOOOO. I woke up this morning and immediately started crying. It’s triggering being treated this way after three years of it. I should’ve waited to see my pcp and used otc in the meantime or something, but my pcp wanted me in asap for my swollen feet so I could get lab orders. Which, according to this NP, ‘there are no labs for swollen feet.’ Where did they get this lady She’s like WHAT ABOUT YOUR LEUKEMIA DID THEY CURE IT? I’m like my chronic, lifelong leukemia? No, it is in remission lmao chronic is right there in the name ma’am. It’s the first word. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I’m gonna go cry again sorry for ranting I am so so so fucking sick of medical professionals and I cannot wait for it to slow down but my february is completely booked and march is halfway there. Chronic pain life baby!!!!

My own personal suggestions, tailored to hot climates:

(I live in the American South. Specifically New Orleans. Currently it’s 90 degrees out here and it’s murder-humid. It rains at least once a day in the summer and then gets even more swampy.). A lot of this also is personal hygiene-related as, for me personally, the attendant fungal-cum-hydradenitis flare is always exacerbated by heat, becoming a vicious cycle that just makes me sweatier.

1.). I shower with a chlorhexadine skin cleanser, specifically for the underarms, under-boob, groin, and any skin folds. I mix the cleanser in my hand with Dove Body Wash immediately before application. (This prevents any skin chafing from becoming infected.)

2). Instead of Gold Bond or baby powder, I use a spray-on anti fungal—eg miconazole 2%. (OTC They’re usually marketed for athletes’ foot or jock itch or vaginal yeast infections.) For me, it MUST be the spray on; the cream/lotion varieties have too much moisture. (Again, I live in Swamp Territory.). This stuff keeps me dryer than Gold Bond ever does.

3). Then I layer on spray-Deodorant/antiperspirant. I spray this wherever I put the anti-fungal, including underarms, under-boob, groin, skin folds, etc.

4) I wear “pettipants” underneath any skirts or dresses. Specifically cotton-batiste or linen ones. They breathe well (unlike bike shorts or similar) and prevent chafing.

5). For swimming, I use rash-guard swimwear, like surfers do. No chafing at all. (I usually do the bikini with capri combination, since I mostly just need my legs protected from chafing, but there are many many combinations. The surfers out there know what’s up.)

6) maybe TMI, but a bidet is life changing. No more bending over and contorting. Just a good spray and you’re cleaner than you’ve ever been, multiple times a day. (“Swamp ass” is a thing down here, I’m so sorry lololol). I also have a handheld spray in my shower, also a game changer for getting clean. Also I maybe am a little too liberal with a rubbing alcohol mister that I use whenever I get sweaty and can’t shower asap.

7) PARASOL. In the heat. Use a light-colored umbrella to reflect the sunlight or use a paper and/or fabric parasol—they’re all over Amazon. Walk around with this, bring it to parks, attach it to your chair if you’re sitting outside, etc.

8) When at outdoor BBQs or Festivals, I love those automatic handheld fans with a spray/mister—but instead of using water in them, use RUBBING ALCOHOL. It evaporates without making you humid, and feels great on your skin when it does.

9) Clothing: I wear nothing but 100% rayon in the summer. All cheap on Amazon. The rayon is silk-scarf thin, almost like gauze but slippery like refined silk, breathes well, and doesn’t collect moisture. It’s around $20 per item on Amazon. (I do use 100% silk or linen clothing if being fancy, but not for the day to day.)

10). Big-ass straw hat, secured in place with a long hat pin. Also life-changing. That plus the Parasol in hand, with as-needed spray fan attached with a clamp/clip when seated outside—you’re golden.)

Just my, uh, 10 cents about living in the hot and humid swamp that is New Orleans.

Beating the Heat while Fat: A Summer Survival Guide

Summer is (almost) here and it’s going to be hotter than ever. If you’re fat (like me), you know how much hot weather sucks. Specifically, we get to deal with fun issues like underboob sweat, chub rub, skin fold sunburn, and more. And while I like to take a body neutral approach to everything, this can be hard in summer thanks to exclusion and neglect.

The thing is that not a lot of people really… talk about these things, though, because that would interfere with our image of summer. Not a lot of companies are marketing their stuff as a solution to fat people’s problems, because that would be acknowledging that fat people might actually want to go outside during summer.

Having been fat for many a summer now, I want to share some of my resources for enjoying summer! These are all based on personal recommendations and things I have directly experienced. Please feel free to reblog and add on with your experiences and recommendations!

However, if your commentary is even remotely fatphobic, you will be blocked and your comments will be deleted. This post is not for you, and nobody is actually interested in what you have to say!

Back and Underboob Sweat

Two words: Gold Bond. Gold Bond fixes this. It comes in powder, stick, and spray form. I’ve used the powder in shoes, but not on my body. They’ve recently released an invisible form of the spray, which I’m very excited about.

Spray this under your breast tissue or other skin folds, or on flat areas of skin like your lower back that tend to sweat. Some of their powders have aloe in them, which is delightfully soothing for the skin.

Make sure that if you’re sensitive to scent, you buy one of the unscented versions. The “fresh” scent is nice, but it is a scent!

When you’re using this type of spray, do it clean but dry. Don’t do it right after a shower- give your skin a chance to dry off. Lift your breast or skin fold, spray underneath, and then hold it for a couple of seconds to let the spray dry down.

You can also use other types of powder, like body powder or baby powder. There’s mixed evidence about talc-containing powder and its link to cancer, but some people do find talcum powder more irritating than talc-free powder, so whether or not you use this is up to you.

Do keep in mind that this is NOT sunscreen! Apply your sunscreen first for areas of exposed skin.

Chub Rub

Dealing with the tops of your thighs rubbing together is extremely unfun. There are a couple of ways I like to deal with this!

Slip Shorts

I actually reviewed a bunch of these a few years ago. Slip shorts or bike shorts are perfect for wearing under dresses or loose-fitting rompers as a way to stop your thighs from rubbing. As a bonus, if you’re using bike shorts, sometimes they come with extra pockets to stash stuff in.

Friction Sticks

If you’re wearing a swimsuit and don’t want to wear shorts, or just don’t want to wear shorts, period, then a friction stick is another good way to avoid chub rub! I have a couple, Bodyglide and Gold Bond.

If you’re buying Bodyglide, they have one that’s just as good, Bodyglide Outdoor, that is sometimes cheaper. There’s a Bodyglide “For Her” which I’ve never tried, but that’s usually more expensive and let’s be real, do you really need to moisturize your inner thighs? I think not!

There’s also creams you can use but I find those messy and less effective than the sticks. You might like them, though! Experiment with products to find the one(s) that work for you.

Friction sticks can also stop foot blisters. Rub a little on your heel, toe, or wherever you get hot spots. 

Dealing With Sweat

I sweat, you sweat, we all sweat. Humans were meant to sweat. Sweating’s a good thing. But that doesn’t mean it’s fun, and frankly I hate being sweaty. Typically, fat people sweat more than thin people, for several reasons related to the way we thermoregulate.

Fortunately, there are lots of ways to make summer sweating less annoying. I’ve written about this before, so you can check out that post for some of my favorite tips for dealing with sweat. Here’s some of the highlights.

Evaporative Cooling

A bandanna or other wrap filled with water crystals can do AMAZING things. You can make this yourself really easily- if you can’t find water crystals, you can just use Orbeez. They sell little 99 cent packs of those in the checkout lines at some stores and at the dollar store, and you can make several cooling wraps with one packet.

You can also get evaporative cooling towels, like Frogg Toggs. I don’t like those as much because they tend to start smelling a little funny, but they’re great for larger area coverage.

Using these will help cool you down and will do the same thing that sweat does– without being sticky.

Hair

If you have long hair, get it off the back of your neck. I used to put it up in a bun with a bun former, but now I just use claw clips. They’re cuter and easier! Seriously, this will help you so much. Get the hair up and away from your skin, you’ll feel so much better.

Hand Fans

I always have a hand fan with me, but not one of the little battery operated ones. I’ve tried a lot of those! I even took one up a mountain once, and it was the only reason I survived. But they never provide the same level of breeze that my folding fan does.

I use this one because it’s cute, and you can get cute ones for a couple bucks on Amazon. I do prefer fabric to the stiff paper ones, just because they’re a bit more durable- I’ve had mine for years now. It’s good.

I’m also not a huge fan of those fans that go around your neck, but I’ve seen many people enjoying them. If they work for you, great!

Hydration and Electrolytes

Carry water with you when you go places, and if you’re gonna be out for a while doing anything strenuous, take some electrolyte tablets with you. I like Nuun because I think they taste good, but there’s lots of brands out there.

There’s no one mineral called electrolyte, just so you know. Electrolytes are a group of minerals that includes sodium, potassium, and chloride as the primary (or significant) electrolytes. Electrolytes are important because they have a natural positive or negative electrical charge when dissolved in water. This electricity is how your nerves transmit information and how your cells make your muscles contract, so low levels of electrolytes can cause some serious issues. Different electrolyte imbalances have different symptoms, but common symptoms include nausea, fatigue, confusion, tremors, muscle spasms (cramps), and dizziness.

If you’re feeling those as you’re moving around outside, get somewhere cool, drink some water, and either eat some food or add electrolyte tablets to your water. This will help stabilize you quickly!

Skin Fold Sunburn Prevention

Everybody should wear sunscreen, period. End of story.

But if you’re applying sunscreen by yourself and you have skin folds, it can be a pain to reach them! This is especially true for any folds that form on your upper back or around your upper arm.

These areas can burn and be very painful, especially if you’re in swimwear or a sleeveless top. It’s also VERY easy to forget that these areas need sunscreen!

If you don’t want or don’t have someone to help you apply those areas you can’t reach, spray sunscreen can be a way to get those areas. If you don’t like the spray or want heavier coverage with a cream, then use a lotion applicator!

If the stick style doesn’t work for you (like if you have shoulder mobility issues), the strap style asks for a different range of motion. If you can’t find one that works for you at a big box store, look at a pharmacy. These are often sold as disability aids or for elderly people with a reduced range of motion.

But honestly, one of the most important things about this is just knowing your body. Know where your skin folds are and think about how they move as you’re applying sunscreen. Get underneath them- as you move, those areas can be exposed to the sun, too.

So yeah, that’s my best advice for beating the heat while fat. If you’ve got other tips, feel free to share them!

Skin - emergency (graphic)

My hands were pretty dry all of today. At night after washing them I got pretty itchy and almost developed a flareup. Thankfully I was able to calm it down and relieve it by washing my hands under hot water (bad habit but it was an emergency). I applied Cerave healing ointment on my problem areas (hands, wrist, neck, mouth, and ears) and went to bed at around 11:30.

Then I woke up at around 12:30 with some itchiness on my mouth and ears, mostly my mouth as I felt some oozing on the corners.

I applied zinc oxide cream to relieve the discomfort, but I felt like I needed something stronger. I did end up itching my ears and they started to bleed and ooze.

It felt like ants crawling on my skin. Anytime there's a sensation of that, along with oozing upon itching, is a sign of staph. So I applied the tacrolimus and antibiotic on it. I know I'm treating the staph internally, but I'll probably benefit from doing so externally.

I did feel very uncomfortable, and the oozing causes even more itchiness. I applied this mix on my right thumb which has a lot of cuts. But I know I'll feel better after this. Thankfully it's not a case where I felt a sudden need to slather the tacrolimus on my hands. In fact I didn't, just a bit with the antibiotic mixed in right on my thumb that has cuts.

I have a red patch on my wrist and neck. These are no longer itchy and there is no open skin or oozing/bleeding. So I'll just let those heal on their own, and I did apply the Cerave healing ointment onto it. As long as those don't ooze then I'm happy.

I know healing is not linear and will flare up here and there. As long as there is a net positive - I will get a flareup here and there, but after applying some topicals it will recover quickly and won't be as inflamed as it was in the winter.

I've looked at pictures of my skin from last year. I remember having inflammation, but it wasn't this bad. I really don't know what triggered it to be this bad. I really do not want to live the rest of my life like this either. This is no way to live.

People who have healed themselves said it took 6-12 weeks, so really 2-3 months. So I'm not going to expect everything to heal by week 4 (next week) even though some of the supplements are a 4 week (~30 day) supply.

So yeah I had some flaring, it's okay. It's been worse in the past. With topical application it should recover by tomorrow. The fact that there is inflammation and infection externally means that I can benefit from sort of anti-inflammatory (not steroids) and anti-bacterial topical. I might even consider applying more antibotic to my ears because it looks and feels like impetigo. Kind of like when I had a (sorry tmi) skin fungal infection and kept on applying ketoconazole. So I'll see how the topical antibiotic can help here and there, even if the anti-inflammatory isn't extremely necessary. Afterall my condition is due to bacterial imbalances/overgrowth, which is what's driving the inflammation. I'm just a bit worried about longterm antibiotic use because it can cause resistance and kill good bacteria. But in my case it can be helpful.

So like I said I'm on week 3, almost a month. I'm really going to need more like 6-12 weeks on this, but I'll see with my doctor 2 weeks from now. Overall there is a net positive where my skin is clearing up, and the inflammation and flaring is occasional. It's not perfect but it's much better than January-March.

Update: my ears stopped itching, my mouth is still itchy but I'm not sure what ultimately caused it as my mouth is usually not this inflamed. I'll even consider applying more tacrolimus and antibiotic to these spots when I wake up tomorrow.
