Amachashazi abomvu alumayo esikhumbeni mhlawumbe ajwayelekile njengemikhuhlane uma uhlanganisa zonke izindlela ezingabonakala. Ukulunywa yizimbungulu, ubuthi obunobuthi, ne-eczema kumane nje kungumbalwa.

Ngaba ne-eczema. Ngitshelwa ukuthi kwavela lapho ngineminyaka engu-3 ubudala. Inkinga nge-eczema yami bekuwukusendle, kungalawulwa. Futhi bonke udokotela umama wami wangiyisa ukuyibhala ngokuthi “ngokweqile.”

Eminyakeni eminingi kamuva, impilo yami yayizothatha inkambo engalindelekile, ingifake phakathi kwamasentimitha ngokufa ngenxa ye-eczema yokuthi noma ngubani angavuma ukuthi icala lami, empeleni, "lalilibi kakhulu." Futhi ngenkathi ukubulawa yi-eczema kungavamile ukuzwa ngakho, yindlela ukushintsha kokudla okulula okuguqule ngayo impilo yami okungakumangaza kakhulu.

Iminyaka yokuqala

Ubaba kamama wayengudokotela wezingane. Yize umkhulu engashongo okuningi ngesikhumba sami, wayehlale enokhilimu we-cortisone oqinile kimi lapho sivakashela. Usitshele ukuthi kungenye yezinto izingane ezinazo, futhi wayenesiqiniseko sokuthi izophela.

Udokotela womndeni wethu naye watshela abazali bami nami ukuthi i-eczema yami izonyamalala yodwa ngelinye ilanga. Kwakungekho lutho okwakudingeka lwenziwe ngaphandle kokusebenzisa ukhilimu obekiwe izikhathi ezimbili noma ezintathu ngosuku, ukugeza oatmeal, bese ulinda.

Ngakho-ke ngazibambela ngokwami ​​emafutheni ami, kodwa isikhumba sami sasiluma. Kwakunamandla. Cabanga nje ukulunywa omiyane abangu-20 000. Yileyo ndlela engangizizwa ngayo ngaso sonke isikhathi.

"Ungaklwebhi," kusho ubaba wami ngendlela yakhe enganaki lapho ngidabula isikhumba sami ngaphandle kokucabanga ngakho.

"Ungaklwebhi," kuphindaphinda umama wami lapho engibona ngifunda, ngibuka i-TV, noma ngidlala umdlalo.

Ubuhlungu babuwukukhululeka kokulunywa. Bengingaqondile ukudala ukuthi isikhumba sami sivuleke futhi ngihlale ngidinga ukuzilungisa. Kwesinye isikhathi lokho bekungenzeka noma ngabe ngivele ngiyikhuhle kakhulu ngethawula noma enye indwangu. I-eczema yenza isikhumba sami saba ntekenteke, futhi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi i-cortisone yenza izingqimba zaba mncane.

Isikhumba esaphukile singatheleleka. Ngakho-ke ngenkathi umzimba wami usebenza kanzima ukulungisa izindawo eziningi ezikhuciwe ezandleni zami, emilenzeni, emuva, esiswini nasesikhunjeni, wawunokuzivikela okuncane kwemikhuhlane, umkhuhlane, nemiphimbo. Ngabamba yonke into ihamba.

Ngelinye ilanga lapho ngangikhala ngobuhlungu bokungena kubhavu, umama wami wanquma ukungiyisa komunye uchwepheshe wesikhumba. Ngangeniswa esibhedlela ukuze ngihlolwe. Yonke into ibuye ngokwejwayelekile. Ukuphela kwento engangizwani nayo kwakuwuthuli. Akekho owayenezimpendulo, futhi ngatshelwa ukuthi ngifunde ukuhlala nayo.

Ngabe sengiya ekolishi futhi ngacishe ngafa.

Iya ekolishi

Ngakhetha isikole eSouth California ngezizathu ezimbili ezilula: Sasinohlelo olubi kakhulu lwamakhemikhali, futhi isimo sezulu sasifudumele unyaka wonke. Ngangizoba yikhemisi ngithole amakhambi ezifo, futhi isikhumba sami sasihlala singcono ehlobo.

Ukuhogela nomphimbo obuhlungu kwakuyinto engangivame ukuhamba nayo, ngakho konke kwakubonakala kuyinto evamile lapho ngiya emakilasini, ngidlala amakhadi nabangane e-dorm yethu, futhi ngidla endaweni yokudlela.

Sonke besinemihlangano ephoqelekile yokweluleka ngoba isikole esincane siziqhenya ngokunakekela kahle abafundi. Lapho ngivakashela umeluleki wami, futhi ngiphinde ngagula, wakhathazeka kakhulu. Ungihambise wangiyisa kudokotela wakhe uqobo. Kutholwe ukuthi ngine-mononucleosis, hhayi umkhuhlane. Ngatshelwa ukuthi ngithole ukuphumula okuningi.

Ngangingakwazi ukulala ngoba izinhlungu zomphimbo wami nezokuminyana kwase zikhule kabi kangangokuba ukulala phansi kwakungabekezeleleki. Umuntu engangihlala naye nabangane bethuka njengoba umzimba wami wawuvuvukala, futhi ngangingakwazi ukukhuluma ngoba kwakungathi nginengilazi emphinjeni wami. Ngabhala ebhodini elincane, ukuthi ngifuna ukundiza ngiye kubazali bami. Bengicabanga ukuthi lesi yisiphetho. Bengizobuyela ekhaya ukuyoshona.

Ngashayelwa isondo lendiza ngaya kubaba. Wazama ukungatatazeli njengoba engiyisa egumbini labezimo eziphuthumayo. Bangifaka i-IV engalweni, futhi umhlaba waba mnyama. Ngavuka ngemuva kwezinsuku. Abahlengikazi bangitshele ukuthi bebengazi ukuthi ngizofika yini noma cha. Isibindi sami nobende bekucishe kwaqhuma.

Ngasinda, kodwa othisha, abaphathi, abazali bami, nabangane bonke bangicela ukuba ngiyeke isikole ngifunde ukuphila kahle. Umbuzo omkhulu kwaba ukuthi kanjani? I-eczema yayenze i-mono yaba yimbi kakhulu futhi yayiyimpi engapheli eyayilwa nomzimba wami.

Impendulo yafika lapho sengisinde ngokwanele ukuba ngihambe. Ngavakashela umngane wami owayethuthele ekhaya eLondon, futhi ngengozi, ngathola iNational Eczema Society lapho futhi ngajoyina. Izincwadi zazinamacala amaningi afana nelami. Ngokokuqala ngqá, ngangingengedwa. Impendulo yabo bekuwukwamukela ukudla okune-vegan.

Ukudla okusha, impilo entsha

Yize kungekho bufakazi obuningi bokugcina obukhombisa ukuxhumana okuqinile phakathi kokudla okususelwa ezitshalweni kanye nokwelashwa kwe-eczema, ezinye izifundo zomshayeli zikhombisile ukuthi ukudla ngaphandle kwemikhiqizo yezilwane kungasiza kakhulu. Kukhona abanye abafakazela ukuthi ukudla okuluhlaza, okunemifino yisisombululo se-eczema.

Vele, ukushintsha kakhulu indlela odla ngayo akuyona into elula. Njengoba ngakhulela eMinnesota, ngangidla amaqembu ayisisekelo okudla: inyama, ubisi, isinkwa nokukhiqiza. Ngangizithanda izithelo nemifino, kodwa kwakungezelelwe eceleni kokunye ukudla epuletini. Ukudla okwenziwe ngezitshalo kwakukusha kimi, kodwa ngazama ukushintsha izinto ngokususa lonke ubisi nenyama. Umehluko wawumangalisa. Kungakapheli amasonto amabili ngithole ukudla kwami ​​okusha, ngaba nesikhumba esikhanyayo okokuqala ngqa. Impilo yami yanda, futhi angizange ngibe ne-eczema kusukela lapho.

Kuthathe iminyaka yocwaningo nokuzama ukuthola ibhalansi elungile lokudla okususelwa ezilwaneni nasezitshalweni okungigcine ngiphilile. Lokhu yilokho okungisebenzelayo, ukuze ngihlale ngiphilile futhi ngingena-eczema:

• Alukho ubisi
• Awukho ushukela kamoba
• Izinhlamvu eziningi eziphelele
