Today is March 2024 and I'm pleased to report that I have recovered from TSW! It was a really long ELEVEN YEAR journey, but I made it. 

I know everyone's body is different, but I truly hope that the information below can help shorten someone else's TSW journey!

Background

Throughout my TSW journey, my wife and I researched and explored countless holistic approaches that might help my condition. 

We tried them all:

elimination diets (gluten, dairy, salicylates), red light therapy, Chinese herbs, natural creams, probiotics, bleach baths and supplements. But I continued having nasty flares that were relentless. I still wasn't addressing the root cause of the issue.

We found something that worked!!!

In November 2022 my wife found some herbal "activators" - these were difference from supplements because they were formulated using specific nutrients that were proven to positively impact gene expression in the body. According to the info, I could expect them to up-regulate antioxidants in my body, improve the energy in the individual cells and help with overall detox. 

After trying absolutely everything in the past, I was *very* skeptical that it would do anything. But I had nothing to lose and my wife was sure it could help. I’ll admit that I kind of just took them for her.

Within 3-4 weeks I noticed my hands were essentially perfect. I couldn’t believe it. I was on them for about 6 weeks. 

Then I ran out and noticed my hands started to flare again within 2 weeks! Being scientific I figured there was a correlation, so I started back on just the Protandim nrf2 and things got a little better but not clear like they were before. 

I found out that the three Protandim products work more effective together, so I went back on all three and my hands came right within 3 weeks

I know that these products are working and helping my immune system stay in check and allow my body and my skin to heal.

It's now March 2024 and my skin has been stable and perfect since early January 2023 - That's OVER A YEAR! I don't remember the last time every in my life that my skin was like this. 

If you're still searching for a solution for you skin, I would highly recommend trying the Protandim Tri-Synergizer pack. I don't mean to sound like an advertisement but they have a 30-day money back guarantee so there is nothing to lose and a lot of relief to gain! Honestly I wish I'd found them 11 years prior!

Here's what my hands look like before and now!

Preface

Update: March 2024

I'm really thankful to say that I am now TSW-free. It took 11 years, lots of heart ache, discomfort, and a tonne of research, but I found something that worked for me. You can read more about it here

2019-08-15 - like a light-switch turning off, so has the watery, hot, weepy mess that are my arms

Almost next day after my flare on the 12th, the redness in my skin died down and my skin started healing. Here we are only 3 days after the red, raw, weeping mess. Such a relief:

Monday 5 August 2019

2019-08-05 - Dark day. Open weeping.

Worst it's been for a long time.
Openly weeping. Left arm has started to get as bad as right arm (can see red scratch mark).
Pics taken after getting out of soaking in bath. Skin is peeling off. Feel like a burn victim. 


Friday 2 August 2019

2019-08-06 - Going downhill fast

Right arm the worse, getting severely itchy and weepy. 
Up to now, I would go through flare-up's and die downs roughly every week since May. At times, when it died down, skin would almost be perfect, but for last week, has just started to get steadily worse day after day.
