I was diagnose almost 2 years ago at the peak of stress. It was bad, very bad. I was treated with oral and topical antibiotics. These, did nothing or got it worst, specially the topic anti-bio. Interestingly, I observe major improvements a couple of days after I visit Caracas. I notice changes after a went swing in swimming pools a couple of days. Normally, I have 2-8 lesions + flaring; my face was clear of lesions. Once I returned to Chicago, I tried to get expose to the sun and swimming pool water as often as I could. Improvements continued. Currently, I go to the swimming pool 3-4 times a week. My face kind o like it, if I have lesions (cyclic) these get better, much better faster following pool water. I have an MD and a PhD (immunology) and I have tried everything (antibiotics, anti-histamines, borax, tee tree oil, aspiring, yogurt, and probably some other stuff. I think there is something on photo-therapy, as it seems to be helping. M30 Peter,
