NEW SPOTS!!!

Posted by Lawrence on May 2, 2012 at 9:56am in Main

Hi Everybody,

     Just finding two new vitiligo spots!  It's been over a year since I have gotten any new spots. I had thought that the Thyroid Meds and Protopic use had stopped the spreading. But NO wasn't ment to be.

My question for this discussion is:

Has anybody successfully stopped the speading of Vitiligo? How did you accomplish this task? Please share!

    Ok, It's been two years since this post and I've answered my own question. I've stopped the spreading and lost some spots on my face by using protopic. Not a cure all but it will suffice for now. A lot of work. Tips for using protopic.

    Use minimal amount by rubbing in effected area for 10 seconds once a day after washing or no washing(experimented with one spot and still got results)

    After three to four months stop using for two or three weeks then start again. This seems to speed up the process for me. Got really good results.

      That's great Lawrence! Can you tell us what you did to stop the spreading?

    Also I am using ginger juice and red clay mixture to put on the infected area for 30 minutes once a day.

    I keep reading of all of these supplements, but my son is only 3.5 years old. Does anyone know of supplements that are safe for little ones?

      Its the correct dose not the supplement is important . Im afraid Tyrosine for the babies is a very tricky thing :/ cause its about thyroid gland and thyroid gland is about body development ... Very tricky .

        Andrey,  what dose are you taking of Tyrosine, and others?

        Regards.

    Hi Jenny Wong, just read your comment, I having this 90% of vitiligo bleached skin and still having very dark skin with very white patches, do you recon it could work for me? I wouldn't whichever way it works but only if it could give me one uniform colour, I'm originally a black woman who use to have a velvety light brown skin before vitiligo got me but it has now left me with a very dark colour with very white spotty face, so the rest of the body is of a white woman's colour if I may say that. I'd love my brown black colour back if it has to if that would be impossible I'd appreciate if the Chinese medicine could only give me one colour whether black or white, to be honest I'm tired and had enough of this patchy face. What is the medicine called so that I can try to find it in the UK?
