Is the orange stuff a bit like amber? I'm telling you, that's acne, I used to have the same stuff when I was a teen. |
it's bright orange like almost yellow. Like the ugly neon orange glow in the dark color.
I've had acne before as a teen. Real bad. This is much different though. =( After more research it's ALMOST like I have Rosacea. :( |

Tea Tree oil didn't work.
After 2 days it dried my skin, made it burn and red, and two of the bumps I had have sweltered into two HUGE lumps that are each about an inch in diameter. Yup, it's so disgusting, red, and oozing orange that I'm not even going out in public. This has gone so far I'm just going to book appointments with millions of dermatologists until finally one of them understands wtf is going on.
so ing pissed
Worst part yet is google search "allergy decyl glucoside" yields nothing, and from researching facial bumps and allergic breakouts, I can't find a single picture that looks similar to my damn ty bumpy face. :(
AAAAAAAHHHHH:whip: :mad: :whip: :D |
I'm willing to bet you it's ing rosacea. The fact that that desonide is the only thing that clears it up is a good indicator, imo.
You could just try my advice. Wouldn't hurt. Go to a different doc, tell them you think you have rosacea, and ask for another script for a low dose topical corticosteroid. |

Do docs in the States just write out prescriptions if you ask them? |

| For something like this, yes. If Jake goes in there and says he's been doing his own research, and that he's already had success (in fact, his only success) using low dose topical steroids, the doc should have no problem writing him a script for something else. A good health care provider ANYwhere will listen to their patient, and trust that they know themselves best. |

Why don't you pursue a career as doctor? You seem to have the people-skill many don't. |

...But on my face? HPV doesn't turn into a HUGE weltering sore 3 cm in diameter after you scratch it.

Yes, I have mixed feelings about this. They're your official drug dealer. So it's up to you whether to abuse drugs, because they won't care if it kills you as long as you gave them money during the time you're alive.
Halcyon+On+On, it really could be Jew-money-worry. If this is stress induced then I'm REALLY ed, because I can't comprehend life without stressing out.
Got an appointment booked for Tuesday with a new Dermatologist. |
