Just wondered if there was anyone else out there suffering from this persistent and embarrassing skin condition. i have had it on and off for about 6 years now and having a particularly bad flare up on one side of my face at the moment. I am tempted to phone the drs but i know they will only prescribe anti-biotics which i dont like taking as they are not very good for you and i'm not very good at taking them.
I have heard that a lot of skin problems are to do with not being able to absorb food properly through the gut so anti-biotics would not help that. I am trying to take some Enzyme Digest tablets but have to remember to take them with every meal. I definitely feel that the cause is something internal and i could cut lots of things out of my diet, stay out of the sun (i do try and cover up), stop drinking alcohol, caffeine etc but then i could also have a life!!
Anyway - the point of all this ranting is to see if anyone else out there is a sufferer and if you have tried anything that worked.
Thanks a lot
