Hi everyone

Can you get a referral from your GP?

Thx for your response CountessDrac but do you just need to ask your GP for a referral? Sorry, am just not one who goes to the GP very often -unless I need to

I know of a FANTASTIC pead dermatologist in W1 who CURED DS's eczema! Is this appt for you or your child?

Hi ChicPea. Sorry I'm only getting back to you now but it's been one of those weekends/weeks!
It's for me. Don't know what's going on but I've got this red, itchy flare up on the side of my face. Went to doc (who wouldn't give me a name of a Dermatologist) who said it was just stress! Instead he's given me a mild steroid cream. Haven't used it as everything seems to be getting better.
Have never had anything like this before but my body's changed since having my DD

Hi Tayroo. When I was 19 I had this rash on my chin and the Gp prescribed steroid cream which I used for 2 days and it went away. When I stopped using the cream, it returned. Went to a Clarins counter and the Advisor asked me how much fruit I ate (a fair bit) and she told me to stop completely which I did. About four days later it had disappeared. Hope you find the cause if it returns.
