I of course immediately went to their website. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be making any trips overseas anytime soon. I see you can buy the products online. Definitely something to consider. When I took my son to the National Institute of Health in Maryland, on one of our visits we stayed for a week. I had a team to help me and twice a day he was immersed in a cool bath with a wet towel over his head that we continuously poured water over. Immediately following the bath he was Pat dried and then we started slathering emollience on him I think it's your money back. We then wrapped him and wet gauze followed by dry gauze and then pajamas. We used this web kind of medical tubular stuff to hold the wraps in place. When we first arrived, his skin was a mess. It was weeping and oozing and scabbed and peeling and it covered his entire body. To my amazement, after a week, he was clear and I watched my son sleep a night all the way through for the first time in years. I do believe in the wet wraps because I've seen it; however, in the real world, I do not live in a hospital setting, nor do I have a team of nurses to help me everyday. The results were not nearly as positive when we got home.
I know that everybody's skin is different, and the triggers for their eczema are different. What works for 1 may not work for the other. If one could narrow down their triggers, eliminate, and do wet wraps, I believe their skin would begin to heal. In our case, Sharif has ige levels of over 220,000. I have searched everywhere and cannot find ige levels that high on record. From what I'm told that pretty much indicates that he is allergic to absolutely everything and anything he comes into contact with. We know that we cannot keep him in a bubble, so there's really no resolve to his allergies. It really is a never ending battle that is often overlooked.
