$yr old daughter - ketotic hypoglycaemia + other problems

Postby Mumtofive » Sun Sep 14, 2008 11:33 pm

Hi. From the time my now 4 yr old daughter was born she was in hospital with various allergy and skin problems. When she was 3, she had some problems with what appereared to be "sugar" problems and was later diagnosed as ketotic hypoglycaemic. She also has atopic dermatitis (more than 75% of body) and quite a number of allergies which include egg, peanuts and dust. We have tried numerous creams etc on her body but she still has open wounds which are very itchy and weeping, she is very skinny and her hair and nails are terrible. I have had her at the doctors at least 3 out of 7 days a week and the problems seem to be worse. The skin is inflamed and scaly and when she scratches it, it peels in "puzzle like" pieces. Please help!!
