ANYONE F’COFFEE? - Episode the Thirteenth - ECZEMA - ITCHYYY

Send us Fan MailHello YOU WONDEROUS people of my timeline...or of the future....hey!How’s your world? Today we delve into the lows of the life of an exzematic.....what it might well be like behind many a closed door, as folks cope with acute all over body pain and the reality of a true flare of the chronic skin condition known as eczema. I AM....ECZEMATIC..        I AM...ASTHMATIC...                 I'M HYDRATOLOGICAL,                            WHY I'M GREASED NIGHTLYYYYYYIn the audiofiction, Charlie can only function in bed. Oh c'mon, not like that. It’s a school day, a day she isn’t meant to work, and her neighbours have seen the kids to school, and her husband is away. Sods law of course. She talks from her bed about what it is like...those crippling days. She reflects on how eczema has shaped her, and her thoughts about herself....her relationships. And yes, aspects of this are autobiographical. And yes, I did want to share my angst about finding someone amazing and fun to show you can be loved, and to show that, no matter how low you go, there is hope to find that groovy someone, cos....if I can....you certainly can. And he - Paul - makes my everyday even more amazing. So.....the sage advice here is....just be you, and....go out and enjoy yourself. Life has its crazy surprises - go gettemmm....The interview section is...er....slightly different for reasons that obvs I usually interview the guest. Hope what I’ve done works ok and isn’t too....ridiculous....and our wonderous expert is a Dermatology nurse, the fabulous Julia Wheeler.I do want to point out that obviously, she is very much following the NICE guidelines in her recommendations, and that there are....a good number of other options of treatment available to us sufferers that we don’t go into as those are not her specialism.
