2:38:16 AM | Marilyn - I too try to isolate the diseased areas of my body by wrapping them.
I want to give a warning as my gift to the New year by saying what did not work for me - Adhesive tape and Band Aids.
I wrapped large bandages around my legs and arms and fastened them with adhesive tape. . . then covering them up with long sleeved shirts and khaki pants.
Whoa! . . a few hours later the areas where the tape touched my skin were on fire with a rash and long strips of new red, itchy nodules. In one fell sweep - I doubled the number of those devastating enflamed skin lesions. That was last summer - I still have them - they never healed - sometimes they send out raised lines like tunnels and create new lesions. |
