Review for International Topical Steroid Awareness Network (ITSAN), Dacula, GA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I wish I had found ITSAN earlier because then I wouldn't have gone through the pain I went through. During my most dreadful and doubtful days, ITSAN gave me the courage to finally give up on steroids and made me see that my eczema might be actually caused by steroids instead. During my worst flares, I wanted to give up and just take the prednisone which my derm had prescribed because my skin was constantly oozy and crusty and I did not sleep much during those few months but having seen so many people in ITSAN going through and making it in the end, I pushed on and finally made it through myself as well. I wouldn't say that I am cured 100% but at least I am cured 99% with occasional very very very mild flares. Since then, I have been warning others about the excessive use of steroids and showing them ITSAN so they will have a better understanding.
