some advice please
I had
Acne when I was about 15, going into 16, I never did any
Antibiotics thank god, but my dermatologist DID put me on Accutane for a full course (I believe it was around 6 months) anyways my skin cleared up dramatically then, and I was a good diet of cold salads (though I don't know if that was great) and salmon, chicken and sometimes eggs.
What I've begun to notice now is that my face swells up alot. If I don't eat, my face will be puffy and bloated looking, and dependent on what I eat it goes down. Saurkruat causes it to unswell the most, but I find that protein helps alot too, especially salmon. Eggs etc don't help as much. Fasting also causes the puffiness to increase, it comes to the point that I can make a fist and push it into my cheek and see an indent of where it should be.
After doing a liverflush the puffiness goes down dramatically, but it doesn't stay that way, it swells up again when I eat. My tongue has teeth marks on it, and is usually coated in white. I try the ginger teas etc, but it doesn't really help. My bowels move fine, though they're a bit slow I feel. I also have lots of rashes on my inner thigh, red scaly itchy things. I sometimes get rashes once in a while on the wrists of my hands, like on the top part of the wrist..After a
Liver Flush they dry up and turn brown, but they return later. I also heal very slowly, I get brain fog sometimes (usually after a
Sugar binge...well duh) my eyes are usually blood shot, until after a liver flush. I have an insatiable appetite, I can eat until I feel like barfing, hang around for an hour and then eat more. My nose always feels puffy and stuffed up as well, and it's usually swollen. Ive also got some
Acne scars that wont fade, and black spots on my lips, though I think that's from sun damage. As well I have keratosis pilaris on my upper arms, as well as a bit on my shoudlers. I also have a bit of
Acne on my back, and the occasional acne on my upper lip, temple, forehead, (place between the eyes) and nose.
Also my skin takes on a dark tinge, when I haven't liver flushed. After a
Liver Flush my skin turns milky white and transculent, when I haven't it looks...very garbled, mottled, reddish and dark/yellow.
My neck cracks alot when I turn it side to side too, this goes away as soon as I liver flush. But I don't notice these benefits from taking
Liver Cleansing herbs, such as the salad, and Julia Chang's tinctures (luckily she lives nearby and I go pick them up)
i'm also thin, i dunno underweight or not, but I don't really do muscle building activity, I sometimes ride the bike or go for jogs or play with friends, but I don't erally workout. also I notice the swelling goes down after a good jog or bike ride, but it puffs up again soon after.
Embarassed:: part of the reason is cosmetic, it goes from hey pretty to who hit you with a shovel (actual comments)
