Re: Confused about Seb Derm

[Guest guest]

Hi

I am with Donna. Totally confused. The derm said that I had sebderm but I

can't get it under control ( oops make that, manage ) nothing controls it.

it controls me. Sad but true.

Is is possible to ahve sebderm all over the face. Ack, mine seems to be

spreading. now it's everywhere.

Just used the Nizoral/hydrocortisone compound from the derm. Anyone have any

idea how long it takes the hydrocortisone to thin out the skin. If it takes

years, then if I start to use it regularily today, in 5 years, there might

be a cure.

Thanks all

It only took me about 2 months before I realized the corts weren't

helping anymore, and I needed to use it every single day to keep from

breaking out. This was using 1%, and later .05%. According to

Nase's book, it is often a matter of a few months until you hit the

rebound point, not years.
