HELP! I Have Eczema

I was diagnosed last summer with eczema. I have breakouts on my legs and under arms. I have been using a steroid cream for 8 months. It controls the symptoms but I don't want to keep using it due to the side effects. Has anyone else had this condition? And what other alternatives can I use to keep it under control. I already use soaps without dyes or fragrances. I use Cetaphil lotion. I am open to any suggestions. Thanks!
