Researching eczema, immune system

I have been doing alot of researching on eczema (which is this on going.. I like search and read about articles on eczema every other days...) but lately, I have been googling about "Immune system" "diet for eczema skin condition" and "inflammation."

So.. most of the stuff, I've read.. I have been doing it lately...

• like sleep early (ok.. this is abit fail for this week.. as I go to bed quite late....AGAIN.. blame it on the Kdrama)
• do more exercises (I go for 2 hrs walk everyday.. except last week(I know... maybe this is the reason why my eczema flare up recently!!)
• eat more fruits
• Less foods source belong to irritant foods
  Peanut, seafoods, chocolate, egg, beans and ects...

So after reading a few articles... I found out the hot tea is quite good for the skin... maybe I should drink more!!! I going to brew a tall cup of green tea later (replacing my coffee intake with tea!!!)

My "Cool Gear" tumbler are not heat friendly.... I should get one that I can pour tea in!!!

I should be updating all this skin-condition information over at my beauty blog... but I find that these are abit too much for many who don't have this kind of experiences... (maybe I should put a link that to all my eczema related posts!)

Diet plan

From the very first TCM Sinseh I see at West Coast (which cost me about SD$82)... told me to avoid foods like Chocolate, egg, peanut, seafoods(prawn, crab, shellfish..ects).. so after a week, my medication finished and I got hives all over my body!!! (Neck, arms, armpits, legs, back, tummy and my butts!!!)


I didn't go back to her.. so after a few weeks, my sister ask me to go see the sinseh at Chinatown (which should be pretty GOOD.. )

"According to the Chinatown Sinseh... the medication has nothing to cause all the hives.. it's my immune system.. which triggers the hives! So... to ease and build up my immuse system.. I'm going to avoid certain foods and ects!

I got better.. really better... have been going back every week for acuputure and fire needles (I don't really enjoy it... yet it feel so good on the itchy spot.. especially on the ezcema patches...)

The sinseh advise not to take seafoods .. especially prawn... he didn't say anything about chocolate, egg nor peanut... but I still avoid it! Oh... and also try to avoid high protein foods and cold stuff(cold drink... ice... ects)

As of today... I have another case of itch flare up... on my feet (I think mainly cos I go and apply tiger balm and it itch like hell... scratch until all so swollen and ugly!!!)

Anyway... I going to stop myself from eating "chicken" (cos we all say when we have wound or skin condition.. we should avoid chicken... so... No chicken for me!!)

I donno why... I didn't crave for anything except chocolate ice-cream...

I hope I can keep up... since I'm not a huge fan of Chicken... but I do enjoy steam chicken, fried chicken and korean spicy chicken.... but if I saw beef or pork.. I will opt for those then chicken(lolx)

OK.. I should stop here.. cos I donno what I talking about now.. hahaha.. sleepy~

Have been so busy lately.. they I don't seem to have good focus or concentration on anything... woke up early (trying to get back to normal healthy sleep pattern).. go for a long walk (at least 1.5hrs)... eat... play with the baby(help out... I means even if I'm just standing there staring at the baby)....

Or and not forgetting about taking care of my eczema outbreak - it is getting better.. BUT I need extra care NOT to scratch them... it's really hard to "control".... I still visit the TMC to have acuputure and fire needle weekly (painful BUT worth it!)

Baby Ginny is getting more and more active... which means less boring time and relaxing time.... but my dad do most of the work at night (so he must be really tiring.. so we try to take over and let him rest in the day).

Taking care of a baby is not an easy chores!!!!

淘汰 by 陈奕迅

我说了所有的谎　你全都相信
简单的我爱你　你却老不信
你书里的剧情　我不想上演
因为我喜欢　喜剧收尾

我试过完美放弃　的确很踏实
醒来了 梦散了　你我都走散了
情歌的词何必押韵　就算我是Ｋ歌之王
也不见得把 爱情唱得完美

只能说我输了　也许是你怕了
我们的回忆没有皱摺　你却用离开烫下句点
只能说我认了　你的不安赢得你信任
我却得到你安慰的淘汰

我试过完美放弃　的确很踏实
醒来了 梦散了　你我都走散了
情歌的词何必押韵　就算我是Ｋ歌之王
也不见得把 爱情唱得完美

只能说我输了　也许是你怕了
我们的回忆没有皱摺　你却用离开烫下句点
只能说我认了　你的不安赢得你信任
我却得到你安慰的淘汰

只能说我输了　也许是你怕了
我们的回忆没有皱摺　你却用离开烫下句点
只能说我认了　你的不安赢得你信任
我却得到你安慰的淘汰


Love the lyrics so much~

Wondering

Most of the times, I think that stuff happened for a reason...

But when it gets too tough or too painful...

I start to doubt life...

Maybe it happened cos it needed to be happen... 

No reason or whatsoever~

Eczema, hives, allergies and ugly skin

I was thinking about talking about this issue on my beauty blog.. but then again... I don't want anything gruesome or not pretty to be on there.. so I decided to talk about my skin over here! (I know me... I will talk about this on there too! lolx)

Back in late Feb, before my sister gave birth to a cute baby on 24th Feb 2014(I won't ever forget the date cos it's a day before my sister birthday! So now... le baby and sister can share birthdays (by a day different), kekeke)

I got a major inflammation on my knee and ankel (I have eczema patches, which have been there for years- in chinese we call it  "湿疹 - 显" I have learned to live with it as it will come and goes (which usually took years for it to go away completely... but if they happy they come back and haunt me!)

The infected skin look so raw and swollen and scary - I went to see a TCM.. which I think the medication kinda trigger hives (having this and this all over my body!) ... it's quite common for me la, because I have hives on and off for weeks every few months! But this time... the condition is so series,( except my face)... my whole body was cover in it!! VERY ugly and super itchy!

Allergy
Few days back.. I noticed a little dry bump along my lash line on my left eye (link)... this is quite common as it will go away afew hours.. but this time t didn't and it got worse.

For the pass few days ... I've tried new sunscreen, new eyecream, cleanser and touch sunflower... so ONE of them is the cause!!!!! But since it mainly popped out around the eyes areas.. I think it may be the eyecream... but flower pollen maybe the cause too.. since I always touch my eyes!!! Arggg.... every worse things just pop out at the same time!!!!! (since my immune system is kinda mess up cos of the eczema and hives - anything toxin will cause a reaction!)

I hate Eczema, sensitive skin, allergy condition, sinus and all skin related conditions!!!!!

Yesterday, I went to this TCM.. and I have acupuncture and fire needle thingy.. and some medication... now I feel better... skin look slightly better..  I just want this nightmare to be over soon!!


I'm on ban on some foods : egg, peanut, chocolate, seafoods (like prawn, crab, shellfish)... cold drink~

(I still don't have the courage to show the inflammation eczema patches... they look so horrible and everytimes I look at it.. it just made me sad~ )

Hopefully, like the sinseh said.. I will be recovered about 40% in 3 to 4days and took about 2/3 months to get my eczema clear up!! (Keeping my fingers crossed!)


I have been fighting eczema all my life... and if you have any questions... email me/comment.. .I try my best to share my experiences~

Skin

I wanna feel pretty... but HOW can I when I feel so badly inside!

When will this skin issue be over soon!!!
