My mom and her mom had it. My dad had it along with hay fever, but he "grew out of it" as he became an adult. I have it along with an allergy to Brazil nuts (no problem with other nuts). Both of my kids have it. My daughter is in her teens and it's not as bad now. She also had a funky case of vitiligo when she was little. My son has very mild eczema, but has asthma and severe allergy to all nuts and pets.

The worst part is the itching! Some days it drives me crazy.

I'm sure you all wanted the life story of my family's skin.
