Hello Tony, Luella, Chrisb1 and everyone else

Another one of my problems that I am experiencing is severe hair loss in the front of my scalp. This area also tends ITCH LIKE CRAZY and is covered is seborrheic cysts (well, my whole scalp is...but that area tends to itch and be more irritated than the rest of the scalp). The hair is falling out of this part of the scalp at an incredibly fast rate.The lower back of my scalp is overrun with very painful deep infected cysts.

On another note...my skin has been insanely dry lately. Full body scaling and flaking has increased and the seborrhea on my face has become seriously inflamed. The scaling on my face is to the point of being one crusty sheet over my entire face. My face is BRIGHT red. We've still have had good humidity here recently too. I can't even begin to imagine how my skin will be in the dry winter air. Right now, I can barely open my mouth wide to take a big bite of food because my face is so chapped and irritated. Just the movement of talking sends dead skin showering down all over my clothes off of my face. The humiliation of this skin condition is beyond words.

The acne has increased as well. It is now running down my arms. It has completely covered my shoulders and back and is running down onto my forearms. I even have had numerous pustules all over my hands. I also have acne all the way down my legs now. My thighs are covered in pimples and they are even starting to form in my calves. Once in a while I even get pustules on my feet. I am on the verge of breaking out over my entire body, much like I have severely dry skin over 100% of my body. It seems that soon I will have acne over 100% of my body. It used to be just my face, scalp, back, shoulders, and chest...but not anymore.

Keep in mind that this is after 3 months of Intramax and YEARS of a whole food diet. Like I mentioned in the previous email, I also regularly take digestive enzymes (similase), proteolytic enzymes (zymitol), probiotics (Dr. Ohhira's), etc.

I have spent months on different diets. I have experimented with omitting dairy, all sugar, gluten, all grains, nuts and seeds, etc. I have been on different variations of candida diets more times than I can count.

I do fresh vegetable juicing and eat tons of raw organic fruits and vegetables. I regularly drink green drink mixes- right now I am taking ORAC greens and perfect food.

I've never in my entire life heard of anyone that has tried harder to be healthy yet continues to spiral downward on a daily basis. I try to stay positive, but c'mon...this is about as incurable as you can get. This is getting absolutely ridicuous. This is 12 years of my trying to be as healthy as possible and the skin hasn't improved for 5 minutes in that entire time.

I'll do the one day a week of grapes/watermelon/water, but to tell you the truth, I don't put much faith in this. I've tried with all of my might for 12 years daily to get better. I research health and nutrition constantly. I have spent every cent over the past decade on improving my health and I haven't even seen the slightest improvement. Not even the slightest! Not even one day of improvement.

It's getting really really hard to try and stay positive.
