Support for TSW sufferer

Gisborne

I am looking to raise $4000 to assist me in obtaining treatment in Auckland for TSW - topical steroid withdrawal. TSW is a debilitating condition that can last several years. It has robbed me of my ability to work, maintain social connections and even to live independently. It has handicapped me for 12 months, and in the last 3 months has really disabled me having to move back in with my parents for care and being house bound due to the pain. Despite investigating many mainstream and alternative therapies, currently there is no treatment available to relieve me of the constant 'bone deep' itch, the burning, the terrible nerve pain, the constant flaking and shedding of my skin and relentless insomnia. My skin no longer protects me from allergens and infections so I have become hypersensitive to almost everything and have suffered constant infections.

I have recently been made aware of the benefits of Cryotherapy (exposing my body to freezing temperatures) that has seen many sufferers like me gain relief. I am desperate to try it however, due to the fact that I have been unable to work for the past 6 months, the costs are prohibitive for me. Any contribution toward the cost of treatment, transport and accomodation would be gratefully and eternally appreciated. For more info please follow me on instagram.

Use of funds

Month of intensive treatment, accommodation in Auckland, transport to Auckland and daily commute for treatment.
