I wanted to let everyone (especially Dr. Stoll) know how my 3 year old's eczema is doing since starting him on Omega-3's about 2 months ago.
In the beginning, it seemed as though he would have some improvement, then some flare-ups. So I thought maybe this was having no affect.
However, for the past 2 weeks (I waited 2 weeks to see if it would last) he has almost NO eczema anywhere on his body. He was previously covered with mild eczema EVERYWHERE but his face, hands, feet and diaper area.
I cannot begin to tell you how nice it feels to look at my baby's skin again without cringing. He looks normal!!
Meanwhile, I threw out 3 prescriptions for steriod creams, one antibiotic prescription, and didn't put him through the allergy testing another doctor highly recommended. I changed nothing in his diet, so that I could be sure of what was working if there was improvement.
I give him 2 tsp. a day of Flax Oil in his yogurt. He never even noticed the addition (unless he's watching me add it, then I tell him it is helping his skin feel better).
Again, I am so thankful for this board for changing my life in so many ways.
Thank you Dr. Stoll.
God Bless You,
Renee
