Eczema’s link to asthma uncovered

I read interesting article about a connection between eczema and asthma (link is below). I remember when I was having trouble with allergies, eczema and asthma, I was very weak and got sick every 3 months. It was not a pleasant time.

My doctor gave me strong cortisol medication to stop itchiness, and an inhaler for the asthma. He basically ignored the cause of my trouble and suppressed it with drugs. So my health continued to suffer.

Then I started seeing a naturopath, to heal and educate myself (he’s a man who can fix anything- I love him). Interestingly all my troubles were interconnected.

After a blood test he found that I had an allergy to the animals I spent so much time with. He talked to me about how to change my lifestyle and I started to feel a positive change. It took two years to get better only because I did not want to give up my animals.

Now I’m healed and understand my own body needs.
