When I went to the dermatologist I was talking to her about Eczema and tell her all what I have learned from eczema and that I'm also on eczema team site where we communicate with one another and help one another and she said to me why are you interested in eczema and I said because I have it , and she said to me who told you you had eczema and I said you did and she said I never said that to you I said that I misunderstood you, now this is my third visit with her so I knew it all this so when she told me I didn't have eczema I was extremely happy because I thought this is a bad thing but then I started to get upset and I said to her then what is it that I have because whatever I have it's spreading , so that's when she told me that I had rosacea, and that's when I said all these little pimples on my face is that the rosacea and she said yes. I didn't want to say this but I am so happy I don't have eczema because of how I hear what you people are going through and I was going through something too but I wasn't as bad as you guys that's why I put up there should I stay on this site because I really like you people, I am more on this site than I am on Facebook because I'm always reading what everybody is going through and I think of ways of how they could fix it and I like the home remedies better than prescriptions.

I’m glad that you’re glad you don’t have eczema. I personally believe that most of us on this site don’t have “the classic “ eczema . I was told I had eczema for the past decade. But that was before a real skin test. Now I’m told it’s not eczema. And guess what? The treatment for the new name is working. Bottom line, eczema is the generic term for all of these inflammatory conditions. So I prefer the term to refer to our common struggle: inflammatory conditions. Avoid milk and milk products.

Yes please stay on site. We can learn from you. I actually don’t think I have eczema. How did you find out?

Mine is hand dermatitis & is cleared up. I’m staying in the group. Please stay.

Do you mind if I ask what you have instead of eczema, Ismael? Maybe some of us don't have eczema and maybe we have what you have? I've never had a skin test. Docs just say sensitive skin and eczema. I've had it since toddlerhood.
