hi aunty

thank you for your reply. the burts bee buttermilk i will definitely have a look at.

fyi, i went to a skin clinic today to start the tattoo removal laser treatment and i can now say - what an experience! very very painful! interestingly, during the consultation i had explained to her about my eczema history and she asked whether i had ever used roaccutane to treat acne. i did used it when i was 19 and she commented that it is likely that drug triggered the eczema. she doesn't think the tattoo is a factor but i guess time will only tell. the removal treatment will take about 8 months. i think my next step will be a dental cleanse as i had some almagam fillings. then i think i will start on the liver flush.

i'm also considering seeing a homoepath as they has been some success with the treatment of eczema as noted on these forums.

kind regards

steve
