www.eczemaconquerors.com - In today’s episode, you’ll hear Dr. Jason share more about Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW - aka. RSS/Red Skin Syndrome) and how to heal from it. Dr. Jason is one of the rare practitioners and naturopaths who actually suffered from TSW as well (as he used steroids for 12 years!), so he has first-hand experience of it (he's also one of the experts and speakers in my 8 week group coaching program with the Conqueror Eczema Academy at conqueroreczemaacademy.com and also for my Baby & Children Eczema Workshop).
** In today’s podcast, we will cover:
- What factors determine how long you'll go through TSW for
- How long it usually takes to heal from TSW)
- If you should reduce your steroid use slowly or cut out steroids cold turkey
- Healing tips for your TSW journey
- A case study of healing a patient from TSW
You'll learn why healing usually depends on a case by case basis, and why everyone's healing path is different (and why different solutions work for each person).

Thank you for all the helpful information. Going through TSW for 3 months now. Burning skin at the moment. Sore. No sleep and super itchy and a whole lot of mixed emotions right now. 😔 Hopeful to better days and complete healing! Hang on tight. We'll get through it! 🙏🏻

hello guys, im currently on my 2nd month of TSW and ive been on steroids for about 24 years on and off. And hollllyyyy, this withdrawal period was absolutely hell for me. im currently still withdrawaling and healing my gut as well with supplements like "RESTORE Gut well-being" Liquid (check it out) and been drinking grass fed chicken broth every day. Withdrawaling from these strong medications can really affect you mentally, i hope and pray that people with this horrific condition can overcome the process the withdrawal.

[@Shadow77999]

Hey man. Is it any better? Its been 2 weeks for me and its absolute hell. I hope ur doing better

[@MAHA-vz1kc]

Updateee

[@jenniferlamo2712]

It would be so helpful to those of us with children who cannot speak for themselves if adults going through TSW would make a video explaining stages and what they’re feeling. Best wishes as you heal.

[@briandavis1798]

Thank you for this I’ve been on topical steroid spot treatment for two years more heavily in the last six months. I’m going through withdrawal. I am on week three. I’m having minor symptoms. Compared to what I’ve seen from other people. It’s still very troublesome to me, but I want to thank you because you’re the first personwho makes me feel not hopeless makes me feel like OK maybe I’m almost out of the woods. Thank you for that.

[@Chicatsbri]

Im so stupid I had been going through TSW two times before started using a nasal spray had no idea they had steroids bow O have to go through this again and I am devastated

[@Chandra-fm3vp]

I wanted to find out if fat is good for eczema patients. Fats like coconut oil, red palm oil, avocado oil, olive oil. The Medical Medium said it's not good for the liver so I just want to find out what the deal is. Thanks

[@mastakilla_2k218]

Whats the best way to heal from TSW and heal the gut i didnt hear an actual answer in this video of what to do he just explained is. I used momatasone daily for up to 5 Yrs on facial skin i withdrawn from topical steroids for now 3 years now my facial skin is very dark and thin and my neck is also very dark and i have TSW eczema all over my body im just wondering is this just time that will heal this or is their something i can be doing to speed this up I.E diet in taking of particular natural remedies??

[@jdw9260]

I’m going through TSW at the moment, I don’t know the protocols and am not a Dr but would advise getting tested for any true allergies so you can avoid anything causing flare ups outwith. For healing the gut I have been looking into fasting and probiotics. Some are proposing avoiding moisturisers though some do well with coconut oil. It seems that we are all so different in relation to sensitivities etc that personal trial and error are likely necessary. All the best, hope things have gotten a bit better for you!

[@elKarlo]

How exactly do you taper off steroids? I can't find much online. I am tapering now, but I have no real direction on how to reduce the amount of steroids and how to reduce the intervals. Any help or links woukd be greatly appreciated

[@alexlg9521]

You DON'T taper off steroids! I tried for THREE YEARS! Only got wors and worse! My advice wound be to get all things sorted out in your life and job and finances and circumstance so that you van head into a time of healing. Best of luck to you❤

[@rafeilareggie]

@@alexlg9521 yesss ... My sister finally 90% steroid free without tapering off after 35 years of eczema & tsw, just because she moved out from my parents house 😁. The stress ...

what the hell? i've been using clobetasol steroid cream since 16 so 5-6 years and I didn't even use it so much during some of them years, only in my 21st year did i use a lot and i'm going through this TSW for 2 weeks. when will it go away?

Im going through hell right now and cant believe ill have to whitsand it for an entire year to heal.. guess i can just commit sepukku

[@jdw9260]

Jesus, likewise. The burning is bad but the unbearable itch is the worst, can’t even play guitar it’s so persistent. Stick with it, it will get better. Get tested for allergies and eat clean. Am finding anything I’m sensitive to or any junk food ends up with everything going supernova. All the best!

[@elizabethrivas323]

Hi there- I’ve dealt with eczema on and off most of my life. I’ve been on topical steroids since May 2014 (4yrs 3mos) when it first flared up again. It sounded like Dr. Lee went cold turkey but recommended gradual withdrawal. I’m considering cold turkey. Is that a bad idea? Also, where is Dr. Lee located? I’m in Dallas, TX but would love to meet with him for further testing (similar to the oil example he provided).

[@williamtang6604]

I believe he is located in Canada, not sure which city though.

[@0xtechno]

i tried cold turkeying it but i couldnt. the withdrawal symptoms were too severe for me. try gradual reducing the medication.

[@kevinfang6005]

Are the intolerance test he mentions igg tests or ige (allergy) tests? Can you confirm this please, thanks :)

[@BetterBestForgotten]

IgE's are the ones involved with allergys, but you can also get patch tests and what not done for allergies
