Re: Anetoderma OOPS did not mean to cross post to SAD
Hi Newport,
That document I have the link to is the only mention of Borellia I have ever seen in my quest to find out what the **** caused anetoderma in my case. It didn't say which type exactly.
I suppose I have a job now, to research that. For me, there is no alopecia, and for some reason (lucky me) I have it on my cheeks, which is unheard of in the medical literature I find. Usually they say it spares the face. Hmmm...
Thanks for providing the names of the different species. Will be interesting reading to look up each one.
The patches are located on my cheeks, and spots are on my back (was really bad there) and random small ones on my legs, arms with a monster huge lesion on my shoulder (looks like a innoculation scar but it isn't) and another biggie on my calf that is indented. The calf one and face spots have not changed, but I have hope. The shoulder looks like it is on its way out, maybe because it is permanently stained yellow from the constant
Lugol's applied on it night & day! LOL
How are you doing? I hope you are well. I don't know if you read my post on the
Iodine forum about the skin condition actually starting to heal on my back (which docs said would never happen) and I don't know if it is the iodine,or the companion nutrients like C. Possibly the whole shabang. Actually since adding the OLE (for tapeworm) I have seen an improvement in the skin spots. Could even be the OLE helping. I have YOU to thank for telling me about that! BIG THANK YOU. I may never know what one ingredient is helping, so I must continue all of them!
I hope I can cure it and help others one day, the skin spots and irregularities may not be life threatening but it is socially embarassing.
I decided to do the opposite of what the white coats told me: "ignore it, there is no cure, no known cause and stay out of the sun to minimize the white spot appearance. Come in for more steroid shots if that shoulder one acts up again."
Didn't work. I don't want to stay like this. Something happened to cause an abnormality, so I am on my own to find the cause or find a cure. By trial and error!
So I am trying to "burn them out" with sun exposure (just want to get the molecules moving in there) and taking all the supplements I mentioned. My way is seemimly more beneficial than their way...
Where there is a will there IS a way! :)
