Thank you, Amanda. I’ve read this abstract, and it’s a good one. No, I’m not immunocom-
promised to my knowledge. I’ve had two ANA that have come back negative for Lupus; however, my daughter was diagnosed with Lupus about a year ago.

i am not immune compromised either but I am 73 yrs old.I started out with Rocesia and then progressed to bad cystic acne,wen t from there to burning itching even in pubic hair and nipples. I want to share what I have learned so that others wont suffer as I have. These are the things which I am using that are starting to show results.
I shower every night with sulfur soap 10% including on face I use Azufre brand, I also use a natural bore bristle brush for showering along with a special brush for face..I use Azel iac acid and ,tretinoin cream on my face along with metronidazole but not always all at once for all these products,although many times I do layer them. I have just started oral Ivermectin and plan on staying on low dose the rest of my life to try and keep a overgrowth of mites away. and I will be using premetheine in the same way that it is used for scabies sufferers soon. My face has really cleared up and the use of sulfur soap has helped at shower,i also use paul Mitchell Tee Tree shampoo and Tee Tree oil from Austrilia for lashes eyebrows ect.All this is really helping but I hope to put an end to the overgrowth once I do the premetherine treatments along with a little more time on the Ivermectin. This is a horrible proplem and most Doctors are NOT HELPFUL,you really have to serch far and wide to find one and I finally have!
