Hi guys its aura here I hope your all having a great day but if not it’s OK to not be OK and were all here to listen. I’m having a bit of a problem can anyone help? I’ve been getting the really hard itchy lumps on my face which then turn into red scabs and flaky scaly skin.does anyone else suffer from them and if so what do you use? I wouldn’t be as bothered if they were anywhere else on my body bit there on my face for all to see and I’m getting really self conscious. If anyone can help I’d be really grateful
Really appreciate you reaching out Aura. I don’t have the answer on this myself, but I hope someone else in the community can help point you in the right direction
Hi. I’m Carole and I’m 83. I appear to have mild to moderate loss in kidney function. I say appear because I’ve seen my test results and I’m 3a I reckon. Waiting to see my GP. I don’t know if my problem came from chemo some 10 years ago but I’ve got the itchy skin, wheezing when walking, etc., so any hints on diet or what else I can do in the meantime would be helpful. Goodness knows when I’ll get to see a nephrologist, which is suggested in my test results. So anything I can do in the meantime would be a bonus. I am osteopenic so take calcium and vit D but think I’ll stop taking supplements until I find out more. Thanks in advance.
Had a long journey to a prearranged holiday and I will endeavour to come to terms with my complicated medical history culminating in this latest diagnosis. I have always trusted my consultants. So I will tell myself that I should trust his advice and be happy for monitoring.
I know the waiting period for your appointment can feel uncertain but I just want to let you know that you are certainly not alone and many people here will be able to relate to what you’re going through. Thank you for sharing .
