2015/04/30 - Getting better and better

Hands continue to recover nicely.
No moisturiser being used at all. Hands recover quickly after showering, providing their own natural oils.
Still not 100%, still get itchy sometimes, still drier and thicker skin than "normal" but wonderful skin in comparison. Best my skin has been in years, good all over my body.

Hands doing well, stored all moisturiser on the 14th. Skin dry for several hours after showering, but eventually come OK.
Hands healing up well now.

2015/04/08 - still great, little dry.



Still going really well. A few minor splits and sight pink skin in past couple of weeks, rather good at moment.
Left hand palm has annoying dry patch, but nothing compared to what I've been through in first couple months.

2015/03/25 - still going great


Hands continue to be much better. Very little redness now compared to the past. Palms can still get itchy every do often, wearing cotton gloves helps a lot.
Skin a little dry, resisting use of moisturiser as much add possible, only after showering and maybe once more during day if itch gets bad.

2015/03/23 - no more asthma!


Went for a run today, didn't need my inhaler! No wheezing at all.
Looks like my asthma has gone!
Skin remaining in a good state as well.

2015/03/19 - doing well now.



Hands are doing really well now. Skin didn't start splitting open!
Hardly any redness. Skin is supple. Minor split on right hand palm but nothing compared to just a few weeks ago.
Confident that restricting moisturiser had been key to skin fixing itself.

2015/03/15 - moisturiser withdrawal - first signs of recovery



Skin came much better over past 3 days. Redness died off a lot, especially back of hands. spent Friday out in sun at cricket. Lots of swimming in pool and spar over past two days as well.
Palms have thin skin, think they might split again, have dramatically reduced moisturiser usage over past week or so, however.
