Sandy or anyone familiar with or has/had PG

[Guest guest]

Sandy or anyone else familiar with or that has PG,

I don't post much because I don't have EN and I have some other health problems, but I perk up whenever I see something on here about PG. I've been diagnosed with it for several years now, but it's better than it was, and I didn't return to the dermatologist out of embarrassment. I wonder if treatments have come along further than when I was first diagnosed? I wanted to know if you knew how you got the PG, or when it reared its ugly head. Is stress a component, because I have tons of that or is it something I was exposed to? Where exactly does it come from and do any of you have scars from it like I do? For me, it's a real self-esteem killer which only makes other things worse emotionally, physically, mentally, etc.

I hope I wasn't too nosey with my questions. I'm sorry if I offended anyone, truly.

Sincerely,

Christy in NC :-)
