I’m not sure if there’s a cure. I’m new in this
ball park. I was just diagnosed the end of June.
I have another appointment on Aug. 30. I’ll know
more then.
They keep saying after 8-10 weeks on the Tapazol,
I’ll feel better, but I was never sick. It all
started with this stupid rash. We went the whole
rehlm of testing. First they thought it was my dog,
then our hot tub, and finally my dermatologist sent
me to a Major Medical Center (Hershey, PA) to a
dermatology lab for testing. The guy there is a
world-renowned specialist in the field. BUNK!!!
After five days of testing, the only thing they
could come up with was a sensitivity for nickel.
So I switch dermatologists and immediately she said
it was not a nickel rash, she thought it was my
thyroid. My blood counts were so far out of wack,
I’m anxious to see what they are now after being on
the medication. They insisted I had to be sick.
The only symptom I had that I could see other than
the horrible rash was I was super irritable. Bless
my husband and my son for their patience! I don’t know
if that irritability was part of the disease or just
the stress of the rash and the long ordeal (it started
last November).
Plese stay in touch and let me know how your sister
is progressing.
