Hi thanks again for getting back to me.
1. My name is LaDawn
2. I am 26
3. I am Female
4. Married
5. I live in Canada alberta
6. I have high school diploma and 2yrs college.
7. My occupation is a bus driver
8. I weigh 175lbs
9. I'm 5'6
10. I have extremely dry hands sometimes they crack and are very itchy at times. The skin is discolored hyperpigmentation and no pigmentation it seems and does not blend with my arms that well. They are also kind of wrinkled I think it may be do to steroid use and I now have thin skin. I have some blotchiness on my arms and back. My eyes get itchy too sometimes. My hands are just always devastating.
11. I do get thirsty and try to drink a good amount of water, my appetite is weak and sleep is okay. I tend to go to sleep late and when I go to sleep too early I wake up and toss and turn so I have to go to sleep when I get very tired in order to sleep through. I'm itchy at night too sometimes and that disturbs my sleep.
12. I get hot very easily and then my skin aggravates me so i try to keep cool. When I sweat it feels horrible. I'm constipated sometimes and may go every other day but i have been taking probiotics so that has helped to keep me regular so I have a bm at least once a day. I urinate regular. My menstrual seems fine and comes around the same time each month. Heavy.
13. desires of food chicken, fish, burger,soup aversions nothing specific I'm not too picky but i do stay away from anything with milk because I am allergic and if milk bothers me than I get swollen and asthma will flare up as well as I get itchy and will need to take allergy antihistmane.
14. I am normal pretty calm but on my bad days which is about twice a week not I am VERY moody, irritable don't want to be around anyone, LOW self esteem at times the condition of my skin feels like I don't want to live another day like this. I cry and have anxiety attacks feels like I'm going to have a major breakdown. Fear is that I will never overcome this issue.
15. I'm more aggravated in summer because I feel insecure that I always have to wear long sleeves and be covered up and then I get hot. I'm not as stressed when its cooler outside or even cold because I don't feel like I'm the only one covered up and my skin doesn't aggravate and irritate me as much.
16. My sister also has a eczema we have different dads so I'm assuming its from our mom. My mom has beautiful radiant skin....she recently did blood work and they found candida in her blood but they gave her medicine and so its gone now. I'm thinking that could be the cause.
17. I have for years been using steroid cortisone creams ointment. I have been now taking herbs vitamin c, ascorbate acid, apple cider vinegar, l lysine, vit b, and a parasite cleanse. A few weeks ago I seen some black tiny things coming on my hand. I intially thought it was from my clothes but when I looked closely I seen that it was from my skin. I immediately panicked and called my herbal doctor. I've been on a 15day parasite cleanse it has helped a lot. I see very few if any at all of the black things and the tingly sensation that i used to have in my body has almost gone away.
18. I have asthma and had eczema as a child. It cleared and went away and as a teen came back and went away. During pregnancy 5yrs ago it became really horrible and I have been suffering with it ever since. My skin used to be very nice even color and now it is the opposite and I'm losing my grip I just want it gone. It has improved since pregnancy but never went away. Please help!! thank-you.

Get a 30 ml dropper(glass)container, wash thoroughly.Fill the container with 15 ml of pure water.Add 4-5 drops of Sulphur 1 LM to this. Replace the cap/dropper and shake the container 10 times (succussions/strokes).
Now your dosage bottle is ready.This will remain fresh for a week.Prepare again for the next week.

hi LaDawn, skin diseases usually are of unknown origin sometimes they can be because of stress, i use to have skin asthma and pityriasis rosea and have tried to get rid of them for years, they keep coming back, ive just discovered a new product which a friend nurse recommended me, perfectly safe, i became a distributor to get discounts for Proflavanol from USANA, you can search their site from google. i think they have an outlet in Canada. My skin problems are nearly over and only few spots have appeared, getting better. they only sell it to distributor if you want more details you can email me or reply to my post, their products are with money back guarantee if found substandard. so you can be assured.

hi dr,
the reason that I was going to take the liquid version is because the pellets contain lactose from what ive read and I am SEVERLY allergic to anything with it. I now wanted to make sure that the liquid version contains no lactose in it? thanks for all your help i greatly appreciate it.
