Guest guest Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Just wanted to post this wonderful result. Some time ago I asked about the itching blisters that have been on my legs since last November. I have been to a dermatologist and they only thing they could do was put me on prednisone. I did it for one round just to try to get some relief from this terrible skin disorder. He had no idea of what it was except probably an allergy to something. I made a cream of emu, lavender and heli. It helped immediately with the itching and my legs began to heal. After a couple of months, it hit again with the terrible itching and I was back where I started. I read much about castor oil packs and figured I had NOTHING to lose with trying them on my legs. I soaked cotton cloths with the oil, wrapped them around my legs, covered with plastic wrap and topped with a hot water bottle as hot as I could stand it. Kept this on for 2 hours. The next AM, my legs felt amazingly different. No hurting . . . no itching. I did this for three nights and am so excited about how they now look and feel. The skin is feeling normal . . . not scaly or itchy. There are still very red areas that need to heal but I really feel like that will actually happen now. I made an ointment of castor oil and GSE to apply a couple of times during the day to the red areas. Hoping this will take me the rest of the way to the cure. I would appreciate any other suggestions. -Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
