  • Hi Satish,

    I tried Vitix and to be honest it was a waste of time for me. It wasn't licensed in this country at the time so I had to buy from another country and it was expensive. Waste of money as far as I was concerned. I've tried loads of creams and now use a tanning cream to camouflage the large areas on my face. Seems to work ok.

  • Hi sathish sorry for the late reply just today only i saw your message. please dont try uvb light for your child she is too young for that and lot of side effect. please go and see the doctor in vijay homeo clinic in choolaimedu in chennai. and also give lot of carrot and beetroot juice, be confident and stop using all steroid cream. And also ask doctor for homeo drops to apply on vitiligo.

  • hi..sathish i tried homepathy for my son for 9 mths bt no result...just started with ayurveda...

  • hi..satish....can we br friends and try 2 help our children....

  • hi

  • Hi Sathish !!! I hope homeopathy medicine helps your daughter. My Ayurveda treatment is going well. It is now 5 months since I started and I am satisfied with the results I got. Some areas - I see good improvement. Of course, I have a long way to go. I still recommend that you try Ayurveda medicine for your daughter. And have you heard about lukoskin? It is a new medicine developed in India. Take care !!! Nadika    

  • Hey Sathish !!!! How are you ??? Where are you now ??? How is your daughter's treatment going ??? My Ayurveda treatment is going well. By the end of the year, I will know how good it is. Take care !!! 

     

     

  • HELLO AND WELCOME TO VITILIGO FRIENDS!!
  • Sathish !!! Thank you for your good wishes !!! I will of course tell you how the treatment goes !!! I think, when you return in December, I will probably be able to give you a better idea of how the treatment was. Maybe, you start looking for a doc now itself, and start treatment in December.

     

    I did a web search on Tilapia and I found that it is red fish. How to know if the fish is red or white ?? Look at the color of the flesh !!! It really is easy to differentiate !!! Cod, and Sear is white. So is white tuna !!!! You get red tuna too !!! Chicken and turkey is - white. Eggs are safe too !!!

     

    In my family too - no history of vitiligo. I am the first. No idea what caused it. May be something I ate or some medicine I took caused it.

     

    Take care !!!       

  • Sathish !!! I am taking Ayurveda treatment from Colombo. I started treatment from this new doctor only about 3 weeks ago. He is specialized in skin diseases. Try to find a similar doctor where you are. He gave me an oil to apply on my vitiligo - every morning. He said, if possible to stay in the sun for about an hour - till about 8 AM. He also gave me many Ayurvedic medicine to drink / swallow / eat. I specifically asked if the oil he gave me make my vitiligo spread more IF the oil spreads to non-vitiligo skin. He assured me it will not. He said it will take some time before I see any positive result. I am giving this a try.  

     

    Yes, spicy food is not recommended for us. Milk is okay though! Chocolates ... moderate levels okay. Same goes for coffee and tea. But I doubt a 3 year old drinks either of them! A previous Ayurveda doctor said to stay away from citrus fruits and not to eat red meat and red fish. Paneer is not a good idea either - but I sometimes eat !!! 

     

    Other than Ayurveda medicine - I tried and got good results from using Protopic on vitiligo on my face (ears, to be precise), I still have some little more vitiligo on my face - I need to start on Protopic again. Lately I have been neglecting my "western" medicine. I also used a steroid based cream caleld ELOMET - which made some of my little spots on fingers brown again. But - steroid cream is no good for big spots.

     

    Do you have any idea what caused vitiligo on your daughter ???

     

    Take care !!! Be strong !!!
