Dave's Topical Steroid Withdrawal. Friday, September 12, 2014. September 12, 2014 - Knock on Wood! I am now in month 14 since stopping steroids and it’s been a while since I have posted an update. I am very hesitant to post this lest I jinx myself, but being someone that does not believe in the paranormal, I am going to post anyway…. The infamous one-year flair was a doozy, but I am improved to a better state than I was before the flair. I am functional! Since my last post:. I still have a ways to go....

Dave's Topical Steroid Withdrawal: March 2015
http://davestsw.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Dave's Topical Steroid Withdrawal. Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Wednesday, March 11, 2015 - An Update. In reading what others have gone through with topical steroid withdrawal, there seems to be a late stage where they kind of disappear. I believe it’s a time when they feel good enough that the symptoms are no longer the central focus of their lives and they just want to get on with life. I am at that point. The insidious itching is still there, but much less than before. I am no longer taking hydroxyzine ...

Dave's Topical Steroid Withdrawal. Saturday, July 11, 2015. Thursday, July 9, 2015 – 2 Year Anniversary. It’s been 2 years today that I last used topical steroids. I have been slowly progressing until about a week or so ago. I have started a major flare. Sigh. Thankfully, I have not felt any cold sweats or electrical jolts that I used to, and the edema has not returned. Knock on wood. Hugs from Texas,. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Father. Husband. Skeptic.

Dave's Topical Steroid Withdrawal. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. Tuesday, April 28, 2015 - Cruise. In my last post I mentioned going on a cruise with my wife, and we went last week! I originally scheduled it for September, but moved it up as I was feeling pretty good and we don't know how Robin's FSHD will progress. The cruise was awesome! April 29, 2015 at 5:46 AM.

Signs that I was entering a new flare started showing up a few days ago. Up until then my symptoms have been reduced to my appendages, but I started getting a rash back on my abdomen along with itching and wetness. My eyes started swelling and my neck has broken out. I itch everywhere. Every. Where. At least now, how I look and how I feel coincide. My lack o...
