Guest guest Posted July 10, 2001 Report Share Posted July 10, 2001 Hi my name is , I am a 38 year old male, who was diagnosed with this very frustrating disease... or " nuisance " as my very inept dermatologist referred to it, back in March of this year. My symptoms continued to grow dramatically worse with every passing day, despite the fact I had been on antibiotics for months, and watching what I consumed, staying out of the sun..... and you know all the rest. I had never been so depressed in all my life. 6 weeks ago I wandered into a health food store and asked if they knew of any natural remedies that may help cea sufferers. They responded very matter-of-factly, like it was common knowledge... " we uderstand that disease is brought on by a deficiency of Hydrochloric acid in your stomach " . Whether this is right or wrong, I had nothing to lose. They recommended that I take HCL with Pepsin (Hydrochloride) before every meal. In addition they suggested that I take Paba, Flaxseed Oil, Vitamin C and B-Complex. I take smaller doses of the HCL before smaller meals, and larger doses before larger meals. I continue to wash twice a day with Plexion and take one capsule of Doryx (my antibiotic) each morning. But almost immediately after taking the HCL I began to get better. I have forgotten to take it a couple of times before eating, and would break out in papules and postules very quickly (within a couple of hours). I'm now eating what I want (with a few exceptions) and even drinking a few beers from time to time, and my face is completely clear with the occassional pustule. The redness is almost completely gone. I truly believe the HCL is the difference. I still have to be careful with overheating in the sun, but I have found TI Screen Sports Gel SPF 20 kicks butt!! My only remaining symtom seems to be my eyes, which I am planning to ask my doctor about some of the meds I've read about on here. Thanks for all the imput. I hope you all find your miracle formula, as I feel I have. And I pray a cure can be found for this dreadful ailment. God bless you all, and good luck.
