your doctor theory on vitiligo and the cure

i'm just curious what your doctor have on theory of vitiligo cures

in general the doctors that i have been seeing all agree it an autoimmune disease

treatment that i received from several doctors :

Doctor A - he's a dermatologist

Oral medication : psoralen

Injection of steroid on patches 

daily dose of morning sunlight 

result: my skin now is quite sensitive to sunlight, and easily burn T_T

Doctor B - he's a naturopathy doctor

his medication involve with traditional herbal medication

i do ANA test 

his theory is that the underlining condition can be improved to medication, but the doctor never get clear explanation on this.

only lasted less than 2 years, since when taking his medication my vitiligo get expand quickly

Doctor C 

he has theory that every auto-immune condition can be triggered by food intake.

done T3, T4 test (normal result),

and also iGG food allergies test (high rank for dairy, wheat, kelp, ) 

his medication involved on using black pepper lotion and daily dose of UV/sunlight, some home made supplement and diet based on Igg testing. few patient that do strict diet based on test showed some improvement

my vitiligo seems to triggered by stress (simple but hard to overcome, especially if it work related)

so what about your doctor theories ?
