I Hate Flakes-snowflakes-flaky People-dandruff Flakes Posted: 12-07-03 02:44am
Hey
i am severely depressed
because I have seborrheic dermatitis on my
face and scalp. I've had this condition
for 4yrs and nothing has really worked to
clear it up. I've tried hyrdrocortisone,
nizoral shampoo.. Ect.. Ect. I've also
tried putting olive oil and black seed oil
on my face, sadly it didnt help. I've
bought multi-vitamins, I didnt see no
difference. I seperately bought vitamis
b5, c, d, a, zinc, biotin, and a bottle
that contained all the
b-vitamins(b-complex). I also tried fish
oil capsules, I didnt see no difference.
I tried different anti-dandruff shampoo on
scalp i.E. Head'n'shoulders, selsum blue.
Nizoral used to work the best but it no
longer works as well as it use to.
Enough of my babble----i was wondering if
anyone new about any new treatment for
seborrheic dermatitis or any treatment
that works for that
matter???????????????????????? Any reply
would be greatly appreciated!

Flakes Everywhere I Look Posted: 12-08-03 16:18pm
Hey
i flew all the way to london,england to
see a homeopath. I was told to take these
pills(cant remember what they were
called). He also advised me to buy an
aloe vera gel/cream to rub on my face.
Before I got the aloe vera I decided to go
into a homeopathic store and I stupidly
bought this cream that supposedly was to
help my condition. The cream had borage
in it which i've heard is helpful for my
condition. I began this routine where I
would take 2pills a day. I would put on
the aloe vera in the morning and the
borage cream at night . Anyway, it didnt
help at all. In fact I got a huge rash
that took weeks to disappear. I sunk
into a deeper depression. All in all I
would say not a good experience.
This condition has caused me nothing but
grief . My skin never
gave me any trouble for 17yrs. I use to
have an active social life and now i've
become the queen of anti-social. I
dropped out of university, and I cant work
due to anxiety brought on by this
condition. Basically, I no longer leave
my house period.
Any positive suggestions would be
welcomed.

i am sorry that you could not be helped by
the prescription of that particular
homoeopath. But I am sure after proper
perusal of your symptoms and the stage of
the skin condition homoeopathy would still
be your best bet.
at this point in my life, I cant afford
to go see a homeopath. Anyways, I really
appreciate that you took time(sec/min?)
off your life to reply back to me .
Thank-you Dr.Venugopal:)
