Guest guest Posted September 11, 2000 Report Share Posted September 11, 2000 You might try using a product with a beta hydroxy acid if your skin can tolerate it. It might be that the flaking skin from the seb derm is causing your pores to clog. You can also try a very diluted solution of Nizoral shampoo on your face (a drop of the shampoo to 1/4 cup of water). I've done that in the past for a few days running and it seems to clear the problem up for a few weeks. Hope that helps!

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2000 Report Share Posted November 21, 2000 Edith, It was I who wrote about Dynabec. I haven't tried it, though, because my HMO doesn't cover it. In any case, I seem to be okay using doxycycline. Perhaps this can be another option for you. I don't know about teeth discoloration with doxy, but it is supposed to make you more photo-sensitive than the other cyclines. > Hi, group > sorry for forgetting who posted me about Dynabac, I can't find that letter.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2000 Report Share Posted December 30, 2000 Fran, I have not eaten sugar for ten years, I gave up bread (whole wheat) two months ago, I never drank, I gave up smoking, coffee, dairy and meat I take vitamins and at this moment I live on fruit, vegetables, fat-free yogurt, rice cakes and olive oil. I do not think that I am able to make any more lifestyle changes... I am depriving myself of everything I ever enjoyed, nothing works on me, and since I feel ugly and my face cannot be touched I do not date and socialize anymore. This beast got me, beat me and all I can do is find a shrink and try to accept it. Have a wonderful new year, Edith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2000 Report Share Posted December 30, 2000 Edith, Have you considered going back to the things that make you happy, like coffee, smoking and sugar? I hate that this has " beaten you " , as you said. If you were to go back to the things you enjoyed, do you think that your skin would get worse? Who knows? If you went back to the lifestyle you enjoy, your mental health and outlook would probably improve. If none of these changes are helping your skin, why not live life the way you want to? Maybe that in itself would make you happy. Remember, we're here for you.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2001 Report Share Posted January 21, 2001 hi ! Just want to let you know, that I can't see my " roadmap " any more--it was located on the upper left cheek area on my face, but it sure took a LONG TIME to resolve! Many years ago, I had some electrocautery done on it (about 1990-91); then in 1996, I had some sclerotherapy (veins injected with saline/lidocaine) done and they faded so that I could cover them with make up and the make up didn't " bounce " off; then I went in when my doctor got the nd-YAG and the roadmap was " zapped " --that did a GOOD job; and now the series of photoderms when I can afford them....maybe it was the series of all these things i've gone thru that did the job.....but I do believe the job is finally done--the veins started " re-appearing " approx 1 year after the nd-YAG treatments. Lunch? sometime? Good luck to you and best regards Carol WtchHazle@... wrote: > > It seems that the photoderm furor is dying down.
