Re: My hard plight - Story of a 29 year old dealing with folliculitis decalvans for more than 10 years

Hi Raph!
First, welcome to the Forum!
You´re at the right place, ´cause here you can get in touch
with people like you,who suffer from the same damned disease.
I´m 29 years old,and i´m suffering from FD since 7 years.
The scarring on my head began two years ago.I´ve seen numerous derms, and they´ve made five biopsies.I´ve tried the Antibiotics -cocktail, but it didn´t worked.
Now i´m on Isotretinoin for two months, and my scalp looks much better than ever before.The inflammation is not completely gone, but my scars look quite good now.

Here´s a pic from September




You´re right, you´re "case" is the worst one i´ve seen so far!This ilness is such a pest :(
I think your wig looks quite good!
It´s true, there is only very poor information about FD on the web, so we have to do the research work on our own.
So, i really appreciate this Forum,´cause the folks here have so much experience,and information about FD.

I wish you a happy new year,and try to stay positive!
