I've had similar experiences with eczema and prednisone for a lifetime (I'm 76 and was hospitalized as an infant with my hands and feet tied to the crib so I couldn't scratch). Dupixent pretty much cured it for me in the last two years, thanks to a wonderful dermatologist in the states. I am so grateful.

Thank you! Similar circumstances with another illness. Hope is there if you can find the right doctor - by the Grace of God.

What has your dermatologist agreed to in terms of ciclosporin ongoing treatment? I had to come off and try dupixent which was an epic fail. Waiting for methotrexate to kick in. Ciclosporin allowed me to be functional

When I first went on it, they didn't state how long for. The second dermo said they felt 6 months. However, I still fight my case each time I go. As long as my bloods and blood pressure is fine, there is no reason why I shouldn't continue. Wishing you all the best.
