Please avoid Hydocortisone and any other skin medicines. Homeopathy believes that any medicine put on the skin is very dangerous, and makes problems such as these much worse.

The remedy for you is Mezerium. You can get this in 30c, and we can adjust this as necessary. Please get Mezerium 30c, and put one single pellet into a container of about 10oz of water. Let the pellet dissolve, and then please drink one tablespoon of the liquid.
Please tell us how you feel after a day or so.

Mezerium is the remedy that best fits all of your symptoms. It is capable of curing the cause of asthma, but that may take some time. I expect that you will notice some improvements after you begin using it.

Dear Homeopathy International 1,
Sorry it took a while to get back to you. I got the med and took it last night, the only difference I have noticed is that the itching has reduced. Now should I cont taking this med or stop or how much should I take?
Again very grateful for your help.
Thanks
