It's great that you've found this doctor. It is so rare to find a good one.
I'm so sceptical of steroids from bad experiences but I just googled this stuff and it says not to use hydrocortisone if you have bacterial or fungal infections. This could explain why many people with EC who try corticosteroids don't have success; because many of us have underlying infections in the crusts/skin. So really I will prob give this a go at some point but have a culture done first.
Did you say you had staph Healing? But it's cleared now? Or was that someone else..
