» lisa52 - Keloids

The keloids on my body my back, ears and also other places on my body. I can't work anymore because the pain is so unbearable I have to go to the pain clinic and also have another doctor that treats my insominia and he also gives me pain pills. I cry everday all day and all night because the keloids are running my life I have to make them happy. I have over 20 pillows on my bed I have a heating pad, blanket massanger, green alocol, vic sab all these different things I have to treat the keloids and what's really the worst part is that they hurt aching pain and the keloids form infection which is so painful I can't sleep just take all these pills that don't work like morphine 3 times a day i'm on the highest dosage I can take but that's the only way i can get rid or try to get rid of some of this pain I have a 15 year old and a 10 year old and a husband. I'm so blessed to have them they take care of me because I'm limited can't even get out of bed somedays. I feel so sorry for them they know mommy has these ugly scars all over her so they feel so so sorry for me they cry sometimes when they see my cry they can look at me and see when i'm in pain. They are my angels because i had these keloids on me when I was pregant with them so i double suffered. Im in the process of looking for a plastic surgeon. I feel if I keep trying and get some of them removed a few at a time I have over 30 keloids on my entire body. I ask my mom do she think I was cursed with this because its so rare. Seen in more Afircan Americans. My dad had one keloid on his ear he's gone now so I never knew to much but did my own research my red blood cells can't fight off the white one so every scar or puncture turns to a keloid. I've been off for more than a year.
