Hello, I’m doing my own Demodex research as I am certain I have this and am frankly sick of dealing with it. I started Dupixent back in Sept for severe dyshidrotic eczema and have found myself dealing with increased redness, papules, and scales on my face. It is extremely discouraging to be gaslit about this possibility when I bring it up to the prescribing doctor. I know that fungal issues and frankly anything that changes our immune response to those little microorganisms can definitely be contributing factor here but I am hesitant to give it up since my hands look so much better on the Dupixent. I was not even able to sleep with the itching blisters on my hands. But now my face looks awful! Defeating it seems like a full-time job. Hoping I can get some suggestions from this thread. Hopefully I can try the scabies med or ivermectin 🙁
