This is the way that both of my babies were (for about 5 years... really severe all over except no diaper rash or eczema on diaper area). I'm still waiting for the blood test to come back on my daughter. If she's positive, of course my son will be tested too.

Thanks for the replies. Tomorrow's the day (we probably wont find anything out but you never know). It is the strangest thing. Yesterday my son was hunched over in pain and couldn't move.

I guess I just want to feel like I'm doing SOMETHING constructive. My kids both had SEVERE eczema from about 1 month until around 5 years. It was head to toe and unresponsive to medications. They were both tested for allergies, my daughter did not react to much... dust mites and cat allergens. My son had a list a mile long. They are now 15 and 9. My...
