Now the shock is over you probably have a choice to make; find a way to keep using the wool by limiting how much you do with it and making sure you don't touch your face while working etc. OR accept this as a clear sign that it is time to move on to something new. You are so talented and there are other products just waiting for you to try. Ooops sorry, that was probably the voice in MY head. Whatever you choose I look forward to seeing and hearing about your adventures! And good luck!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08965401814434836393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553013397671874177.post-1549563272394440572012-02-18T13:28:32.133-05:002012-02-18T13:28:32.133-05:00Please tell me you don't wash your face with S...Please tell me you don't wash your face with Selsun Blue....<br /><br />Oh, my dear Cathy. You have my deepest and most sincere condolences. I feel like I should send flowers or something. Coming from one who loves every stinking thing about wool and has been known to pay surprise visits to my neighbor just so I can fondle her wool, I truly can empathize. Hopefully the drugs will be effective and you will be able to play on.....<br /><br />Big Hugs to you.....RobinTheCrankyCrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314851714923955216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553013397671874177.post-1449053739450869232012-02-17T09:27:07.920-05:002012-02-17T09:27:07.920-05:00Dang, that sure sounds like it is a big mess, ge...Dang, that sure sounds like it is a big mess, get yourself in order and put that woolie stuff aside, perhaps goodwill, noooo sell it to pay for your days expenses. haha.

Too much soap, stress and chemicals used to clean the skin all come to mind. I sure hope it gets better quickly for you! <br />I'm not your mom, lol, but I am a retired NP. Glad you saw a specialist for this!<br />God Bless!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11169757419030448356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553013397671874177.post-8154182532657641262012-02-16T20:34:53.800-05:002012-02-16T20:34:53.800-05:00Hope the meds work.

You just worked on a huge project, that perhaps put you in overload mode. You have my address if you need get rid of it. <br /><br />All joking aside Cathy, I hope the meds will get things under control for you, quickly. In the meantime you can work on your painting projects, looks like you've got some awesome ones started.

I didn't stay around it long enough for those to appear. So sorry to hear of your skin's disagreement with wool, I agree with acorn hollow, strange that it's your face and not hands - perhaps the face's skin is so much more delicate than hands? At any rate, your paintings are absolutely beautiful as well as your other crafts. I know felt isn't nearly as wonderful as wool, but would be a good alternative?<br />Hang in there!<br />JoAnnJoAnn SweetPepperRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812580810403376392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553013397671874177.post-56763003967169219452012-02-16T06:35:49.251-05:002012-02-16T06:35:49.251-05:00Yeh, I thought you were describing some type of ec...Yeh, I thought you were describing some type of eczema. I've taken Derm 101 and am on 102 with my skin disease. My daughter is also a medical assistant for a Derm doc so I get LOTS of info from her. Wool...well, that's a bummer. No advice here as I know that's one of your 'loves' but on a positive note, the paintings are looking great!<br />}}Hugs{{<br />VickyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16266879724801426628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-553013397671874177.post-16468650271572419572012-02-16T06:20:11.690-05:002012-02-16T06:20:11.690-05:00Oh my goodness! that sounds awful!
