Adult eczema- making me very sad

[dottyhenson]

I have eczema in small(ish) spots ALL over my body and I now feel I have to be covered up from shoulders to toes- literally. It is affecting my body confidence and I no longer want dh to see me naked, or have sex, I just feel so ashamed of my body. I have been pg or bf continuously for about the last 4 1/2yrs and doctor says my body is just a bit worn out.
Double base, steroid cream or emoillent cream have had NO effect.
So basically just looking for any advice, ie what has worked for you? I don't want to spend another summer fully covered
thanks in advance

please?

Are you sure its eczema and not psoriasis ?

GP just assumed it was eczema- but didn't really look at it closely, and didn't ask where it was on my body.
GP said it looked inflamed- 1 large patch on the back of my leg and prescribed the steroid cream to fight the infection.
I'm not allergic to anything, but think it is worse when I'm stressed.
Are treatments for psoriasis different?

thanks spirita- u have given me soom light at the end of the tunnel.xx
