AMAZING NEWS!
Hi everyone and welcome back to my channel thank you so much for coming back in today’s video i’m going to be talking about a very exciting announcement which i have seen all over the news today and i just thought i would talk about it and we do play on my channel if you’re interested please keep watching i would love it if you’d like this video let me know that you
Enjoyed it please subscribe to this channel for more videos like this and if you’re interested please keep watching so i am not a medical professional nor am i a dermatologist i’m just talking from my experience about sorry luke is here i’m just talking from my experience and what i know of topical steroids and steroids in general what is dexamethasone you may have
Heard of it although you may not have taken it on this channel we typically talk about topical steroids which are commonly used to treat eczema although you may have taken dexamethasone as it’s a common drug should be prescribed when you have allergies or indeed you have swelling which i have experienced up and i have taken this steroid before you may have heard
Of dexamethasone a lot today in the headlines but what are the differences between this type of drug versus topical steroids are they the same thing the answer is no they are not the same thing topical steroids are creams which are commonly oversubscribed and subscribe’ prescribed for eczema and they become very very addictive i will put a link here to my video on
What is topical steroid addiction and what are topical steroid withdrawals so that you have a bit more understanding dexamethasone however is a drug which people take because of its anti-inflammatory properties so you may have taken it on this channel but they are two different things and they are used to treat different situations lloyd’s come in many different
Forms but the main types include tablets or syrups and liquids such as prednisolone which some of you may have seen or indeed taken you also get things such as inhalers or nasal sprays such as slickness alone which i have taken due to having really really severe edema so that’s when you have extreme swelling and it’s very very difficult to breathe you may have also
Had steroids where you have an injection so that could be like into your knee or into your blood fat so before you have creams such as hydrocortisone which is something that a lot of you will have heard on this channel because it’s a very common thing to be prescribed for allergies or skin conditions such as eczema so you actually take these and dissolve them but
I have been offered these for about eight months and do not use them at all companies such as scratch that and indeed this community as a whole are not ante steroid at all i am indeed not anti steroids however order a prescription of topical steroids specifically is something that i believe needs to be addressed and it is what causes topical steroid addiction and
Topical steroid withdrawals i shall put a link here to my video on the water versus topical steroid withdrawals so this channel has always been to raise awareness of topical steroid withdrawals and indeed steroids in general however the steroids that you will have heard about today and on the news and in the media are corticosteroids which are different although
You may have used them as part of your treatment for allergies or indeed if you have suffered from any sort of swelling and extreme swelling like i have you may have taken this type of steroid the news that has come today is extremely exciting and i look forward to finding out what the future holds i’m sure lots of you will have seen all the headlines of come out
Today about a drug which some of us within the community that are subscribed to this channel who have allergies topical steroid withdrawals eczema arthritis we’ll know already it’s a drug called dexamethasone some of you may have experienced this drug already and i would love it if you could share your experiences with in the comment section down below this drug has
Been cited as being very very successful with patients suffering from kovat 19 about a third of people who have been treated with this drug have benefited well from it this is unbelievable news not only for the medical community but for everybody this is such joy needs to have been broadcasters today there is a lot of tension there’s a lot of heat going on in the
World just now and this wonderful news could not have come at a better time i’m sure that many of you will be eager to find out the results and the long-term effects of this as i am as well it’s a type of cortical steroid medication a lot of us have used topical steroids and this type of steroid before so i think it’d be really interesting if you could let others
Know down below what the side effects were what this treatment did for you if it improved your situation at all i think it’s really interesting because this niche community that we have now has a really good opportunity to let other people know your experiences from it this may have been a negative thing for you because this medication wasn’t appropriate for this
Situation that you had it has been proven to have really beneficial effects for those with coronavirus this drug is used traditionally to relieve any inflammation so if you have had any sort of allergies i know i have it’s been treated to use edema so massive swelling reactions dripping treated to reduce inflammation in her arthritis or in joints or in the spine
And i think it’s going to be fantastic if we let other people know how we have got on with this drug another fantastic thing is that this drug is relatively cheap and therefore it to manufacture for loads and lots of people across the world it’s just so fantastic and it’s great to have found something that is helping to at least treat if not prevent and reduce the
Amount of deaths that we’re seeing in such a short space of time and my applause and gratitude goes out to the researchers who i imagine have been working tirelessly around the clock to find something to help treat this terrible condition what’s also fantastic is that it’s something that we have already had scientists have not manufactured something new so this can
Be made on mars to treat loads and loads of people which is just absolutely just the greatest joy that we could have hoped for so i just wanted to come on here and just talk about this absolutely wonderful information that a drug that this community has seen a lot of and other people may have used is now being treated for something really really beneficial scientists
Have seen that prescribed low dosage of these steroids can have such a wonderful effect on people and i think that having this turn around from a community that has a really really bad relationship with steroids it’s just absolutely fantastic dexamethasone is very interesting because it is known to deal with swelling so allergies and other types of skin conditions
As well as rheumatoid arthritis a lot of these conditions i know that my subscribers and they indeed the wider eczema and topical steroid withdrawals and diction community have been known to have i just think it’d be really interesting if we could talk by our experiences in the comments down below this type of steroid is different to topical steroids but it is that
To see that a low dosage of this type of steroid is going to help benefit so many people at least at this stage as we know it i know the aya pad everything negative view of all types of steroids from topical steroids to this type of steroid as well i know that i have had them to reduce massive swelling and inflammation to do with my allergies and they have really
Really benefitted me during those specific times and it’s just fantastic to see this opportunity arising to help some many millions of people so i know that a lot of you have taken the immunosuppressant drugs and anti-inflammatory drugs as indeed i have and i think this is just a really really positive change in attitude for our community although it has not worked
For a lot of us and we have not had success stories i think moving forward it is a wonderful 180 degrees to treat something such as corded 19 and really really trainer as she drained from being really negative towards medical communities because of our experiences and see that something that didn’t necessarily work for ups or for some people is actually going to
Really really benefit somebody else now so there we have it guys thank you so much for watching i just thought i’d jump on this news really really quickly and i’d love to hear your comments down below what you guys think and make sure you give this video a thumbs up and subscribe if you enjoyed this video see you in the next one bye hey guys so i am just a way to
