Still get 1 or 2 whities in morning. No big deal. Everything is still great. Marks are really healing. Hopefully gone for good. Now need to loose weight.

Zinc was apparently bad for me. But I may have took it at the wrong time. This week I had my period along with family pictures and bladder infection and bad chin acne. So when things calm down I may try zinc again. It all just hit me at once when I started the zinc. So associated all the problems with the zinc. Maybe later we'll see.

Bought zinc 50 mg Tuesday and I woke up this morning to my chin covered in little whiteheads. A bunch of them like that hurt. I was good till I started the zinc. Skipping a dose tonight cause I have family pictures tomorrow. Disappointed. Plus I have another bladder infection. Whats going on?

Still clear! I do get a few tiny tiny white heads, no inflammation, no soreness. The one gripe I have is I am still getting the huge boils, but they're on my groin area or in my armpits. So I am going to try using the Zinc. I have read up on zinc and I have alot of the symptoms of zinc deficiency. My mother I believe has that problem too. So going to the store today getting 50mg of zinc and we'll see what happens. Family pictures in 1 week. shock.gif

I am still clear using the Niacin. I get a few tiny whities but theyre gone the same day. I have family pictures coming up at the end of this month so hoping to stay clear till then. My red spots are disappearing and the scars are getting lighter. I will probably switch to the flushing niacin when this bottle is empty. Its cheap enough that if I dont like it I can get the non flushing instead. This is the best my skin has been in years. I am pretty happy. Now I need to lose weight. I need a weightloss.org!

Last night the boil bursted and it is soo nasty. It has 2 holes just oozing. But the pain is mostly gone today and I can move again! I hate those things. I dont get them very often but when I do it is bad. I think I need an antibiotic cause I just had a sty in my eye and also a urinary track infection, which has all been within the last 2 weeks. No money or insurance so I just have to suffer. One good thing is my face is still clear!

I have a huge painful boil in my armpit. WHY! I am doubling up on the Niacin to see if it will go away. Face is still clear though. Boil is about 1 inch across and wide. Very painful. I don't get it.

If my face goes back to the way it was I will be so disappointed! My skin is clear and healed. I do have peeling from the Mandelic Acid but that is ok. My red scars are fading and any little pimples I may get go away in a day. I am so happy and mad at the same time. Why doesnt this information about Niacin get out to more people? I am trying to let others know but dont feel like I am making any progress. UGH

The Vicco I ordered came yesterday and the black soap also. I used both of them and my skin just soaked the vicco up. My daughter put some on her leg where she had a rash. My face today is not greasy and I had about 5 white heads all in different places. My skin is still peeling from the mandelic acid though. Hopefully this will continue and my face will keep healing.

I am still doing the niacin 500mg/day and my skin is getting quite different. My pores are smaller and the oil is lessening. I think there may be other benefits to niacin but my skin is the most important. I had my period this week and had new breakouts (about 5 per day) but they are gone in a day also. Only 1 on my upper lip area stayed more than that. So I am amazed and angry at the same time because why didn't anyone know about niacin before (like 20 years ago) and why doesn't anybody do a study now on niacin? It is cheap and beneficial to us humans no prescription needed. I ordered new stuff (in America) called vicco. It is from India and made with turmeric and sandal wood oil. They use it for the face and as a moisturizer. There are other uses like for cuts, scrapes, bites, rashes, any skin damage, sun burn etc. So it's supposed to work great for acne. It should arrive here in a week so we'll see.
