For over twenty years I suffered from eczema; my lower legs, upper arms, and back were often covered with itchy sores. My sleep was disturbed every night by itching and scratching. About eight years ago I concluded that the itchy eczema was caused, at least in part, by what I was eating. By experimentation I found that corn syrup and cornstarch were two of the causes and tried to avoid them though it was almost impossible since they are in almost all processed foods. I saw a dermatologist and an allergist but got no relief except by using a steroid cream which thinned my skin. If my skin began to heal using the steroid preparation it would soon be a mass of sores again when I ate something that set off the itching and scratching. One day I heard of AAT (Advanced Allergy Therapeutics) and found Dr. Karen Tan. On my first visit Dr. Tan was able to discover that I had reactions to twelve different substances. I began to have relief immediately after the first treatment and, after just a few weeks, my legs, arms, and back are almost completely healed and I am again able to eat the foods that I love without setting off an itching frenzy. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Tan and AAT. –
