MY LV started in Jan 2019 and I know many of you have been dealing with this for many years, sadly. i have one stubborn ulcer hole left on the top of my left foot above the arch. My right leg also has a stubborn ulcer hole on the outside edge of the foot. One of the original big ulcers is very slowly improving, BUT I got a new shallow ulcer above it where the skin just sloughed off and two other similar areas nearby that might be from the paper tape, or not, not forgetting the new spot hole on the back of the right leg calf. In January when it started I had 12, so am now down to 5.
I already had one AID and since 2002 haven't eaten gluten, sugar and deadly nightshades. When I eat those the skin flares into itch/burn/splits so at Christmas, Easter and other festive times when the temptation is too great !!!!.
Anyway now I have also cut out legumes, dairy, eggs, alcohol. For some years I haven't used any chemical product on my skin or hair, I use perfume free laundry product, good olive oil only, and hypo-allergenic toilet paper.
There are two good books on AID protocol which I am sort of following as best i can.
