My Nonprofit Reviews

ITSAN is a remarkable and life changing organisation. If only I had known about this wonderful organisation many years ago I would have been saved from severe skin atrophy, absolute hellish withdrawal symptoms and a life time of severe eczema. The medical profession realized when I reached five I had been over prescribed topical steroids, approximately 100% for five years from 3 months old which took away layers of my skin. I was taken off them and consequently suffered horrendous withdrawal symptoms, lasting until I was about 10 years old, not ideal for my primary school education. To add to this I suffered extreme bullying from school children which only compounded the withdrawal effects. I was put back on topical steroids in lower doses until my early 20's and told my skin thinning was due to continual scratching, I believed the medical professionals!! Due to the steroid damage I still suffer with severe eczema because my skin is very dry, tears easily and damages due to the slightest scratch. I do hope and pray the medical professionals start to understand the devastating effects these drugs have on people, both physically and physiologically. ITSAN is the most enlightening and God given organisation to help eczema sufferers in the last fifty years.
