So far as food goes, I cannot say we could not have improved, but we grew our own vegetables, ate a vegetarian diet, including mostly organic rice etc. Our young daughter does not have the symptoms. I did find I itched in our house, we have since moved and my itching has gone. I have also changed the bedding to one with dust mite proof covers, and wool mattresses.

You say Atopic eczema is characterised by 'instant' reactions but I find and learnt that it is not at all. His reactions to food are instant, but his normal eczema is slow and enduring to come on. he care we give him that makes a difference, but results are slow, like later in the week. He does have fast reactions to room temperature.

Hi John,
Well, you have been far more diligent than most!
I'm running out of suggestions. Most "severe problems" really aren't, and are relatively easy to fix - IF those involved will put in the effort. You people obviously have...........

However you mentioned another child - a missing vital clue for me - and if she has not evidenced similar symptoms, then a great bulk of causes can be eliminated. Nearly all of the group environmental ones -and this leaves a principal direction as it being something specific to your son.

I'm sorry - for now I can't think of anything else to suggest for investigation.
Best wishes,

BTW: "Atopic" doesn't really refer to eczema - it is used in relation to allergenic reactions. It simply means an instant reaction to something.
