I know this thread is a little old, but I have been looking for a place to share my ichthammol experience. I have had this hard, non-inflamed lump under my skin on my left cheek for three months. I do...

Congratulations

Do y'all mind if I just vent for a second? I hope not... I have been on the phone for about four hours over the last two days with my insurance trying to find a way to get an affordable generic. I ca...

Thanks for sharing the warning! Someone else on the forum who was taking Accutane asked if it was really that important not to wax if you weren't having bad side effects. Maybe she'll see this. lovel...

Serious indeed. My prescription will finally be filled tomorrow! And this is what I had to do: 1 - Get on an acceptable form of primary birth control. I can't take anything with estrogen, so that lef...

Milk thistle! And brazil nuts for selenium.

I agree with the natural approach. It made the biggest difference in my skin. It takes dedication and lots of patience, but the changes are good for your body overall. I got a lot of my ideas for natu...

^ This reminds me of when I had to get passport photos taken and the computer's automatic red eye reduction feature turned some of my red marks and zits into black spots. The lady felt bad and tried a...

No, I have only had it in for two months and I've been on doxycycline 40 mg/day since then, and my acne's gotten a lot better.

Hey! I didn't have many options for birth control because of bad side effects, and I ended up getting the Skyla IUD. Is that an option for you?

My doctor didn't really go into it either. I think anything fatty, like nuts or nut butters, eggs, you know, the yooj. I've read that if people are not able to eat a fatty meal with the pill they'll t...

Nice we're three strong now My derm didn't say anything about not washing my face and gave me lots of samples of hypoallergenic moisturizers n stuff. I get my first blood test on Monday! It's been a ...

Gimme a T! A! N! E! TAAAANE! You're funny. I will probably start my own log next week, but I will definitely prod you along and share my thoughts here in your log. Do you know what brand/dose you're t...

Hey. It could be a burst capillary. I have some from squeezing. Sadly I think you need lasers to get rid of them...

Hey dude congratulations! I am starting next week Yesssss Anyhow, do you mean your derm told you not to use cleanser or soap when you wash your face? I can't imagine they'd tell you not to use moist...

Awesome, I really think everyone with acne should take nutrition seriously, and it's one of the only things that really improved my acne. I started out really hard core, like you, and eventually level...

Hey! Aww, that's sweet. I thought my boyfriend and I were the only couple that shared the tender act of peeling pore strips off each others' faces. How long ago did this happen? Is it possible that t...

Hey! Thanks for sharing your smoothie tactics. I love my little personal GNC blender thingy. I also use frozen fruit for the cost and practicality. Plus it stays nice and cold. Some vegetables that...

Hey! Thanks for your reply. Actually, my migraine problem is with visual/ocular migraines, which don't even hurt or really bother me, but which put my stroke risk too high for estrogen-containing B.C.

Bridgetliz, I'm glad you got that thing out and that your skin is looking better already Yeah, I don't know why doctors keep saying the low dose in hormonal IUDs doesn't leave the reproductive tract...

Hey! I'm happy that Claravis worked for you and that you're almost out of the woods. I know I am totally late to the game, but I wanted to say that I also got a huge cyst leading up to the GRE. It st...

Hey, I'm glad this is useful. I'm sure there are tons of other things we haven't heard of and doctors don't want us to know (or they don't know themselves). I'm normal weight with regular periods too...

  This was the one and only place I felt safe expressing myself... The whole reason I signed up for this site was for emotional support. Bye. You shouldn't let someone's negativity affect and...

Hey WishClean! I just wanted to thank you for sharing all of this helpful information, especially about inositol, which I had never heard of. Particularly because I have some really embarrassing and u...

^ Yeah, dude, back off. You are pretty... negative. This is a place to talk about feelings, and your comment was rude.
