Thanks for the info!
His eczema started as a baby also; he’s nearly 3 now and it’s progressively getting worse and I can’t figure out the triggers. The doctors basically just say to make sure I moisturise and no soap, which I do anyways. Did yours go away as you got older? I feel so bad for him it looks so bad sometimes. He doesn’t itch or seem bothered by it tho which is good

True at least you know now! Yeah I just had a look at costs and it’s about $450aud 🥲 think Medicare covers some tho. Thank for the info!

Interesting! What caused you to get this done? My little one gets eczema so maybe I should try this? Or it just food mainly

That’s crazy! Do they just wipe it in your arm or? Never had one before

Good to know thanks. Maybe I’ll do some more research and cut out the common allergens too see if it clears up - then reintroduce them one at a time? Wish us luck!
