Walter, any chance I can get a sample of the scalp ointment in my next order for Zhong Zhou product I'm going to make within the next few days? I've tried the DS Shampoo. It seems to cause pimples to appear on my forehead (visibly) near my hairline. I haven't been using it very much because of that ...

Bloodshot eyes and occular rosacea

Hi, I'm back after a long break from visiting this web site. I used to post here often, but I just haven't had the time lately. I'm coming up on 2 years on the Demodex Solutions products now. After 2 years, I'm still nearly 100% clean of acne. It's amazing! Also, I had the beginnings of rosacea appe...

Steve, We sure could use you as a volunteer rosacean for the RRDi. Once we receive 501 (c) (3) approval I am confident enough rosaceans will want an alternative non profit that is not so heavily entrenched with the Amercian Medical Association and the Western pharmaceutical companies that are run b...

Brady, Oh wow, a fellow Texan! Yep, I've been to Killeen several times while traveling up to Dallas on I-35. It's a small world. I think you've got the right idea. Your idea appears to be to go in with full force trying to get to the bottom of this problem. You're using the scientific method and hop...

You know Walter, all of the doubt would go away with a properly controlled scientific experiment which is then published in a leading US medical journal. I'd recommend getting a volunteer science consultant. That would be somebody who can setup a proper clinical trial, explain the methods you're to ...

I just use packing tape / scotch tape.

Any left over dryness after that is easily hidden with XFML cream or a regular moisturizer.

Re: 12 weeks into treatment

3 months was about when I started noticing some improvement, about the same that could be expected from benzoyl peroxide treatments. It got continuously better after that, however. And really it was only after 5 months when I was nearly 100% clear. I've heard from others that they're still breaking ...

Re: Various skin problems

It sounds like you have allergies to various chemicals. Rapid color changes on the skin do indicate allergic reactions. You should try to isolate the cause of it. You can do that by taking yourself off of all medications for a short period of time, perhaps 2 weeks. Then reintroduce a large dose of o...

I think the XFML cream has 3% metronidazole. Whereas most prescription metrogels contain something like 0.5%, far less than what you get in XFML. So I'm thinking you're not really benefitting from taking the Metrogel. Better to just use XFML from now on instead.

I'm not going to go into a huge debate with Raw / healthy food again but it tires me when people say things like wheres the scientific evidence to prove that raw food can be extremely effective in many diseases. I take it you don't have a religion or a point of view of life at all? You can't beleiv...

someone mentioned pacebo effect? sorry. but a placebo effect is psychological and not physical so therefore robins observations are not a palcebo effect and have merit because physical changes have occurred. You're mistaken. The placebo effect *is* physiological. That means that it can cause real p...

You assume that coconut oil is effective. That has yet to be shown. I say whatever improvement you're seeing is placebo. Show me one valid, properly controlled scientific study published in a peer reviewed scientific journal regarding this subject. Same thing with regards to raw food diets. Steve Au...

Re: ZZ cream sulfur seems to be what's helping me so much

If the ZZ cream sulfur is the main reason for my face getting less and less pink, will I have to be on this stuff forever? :? If the cause of acne is either bacterial or demodex mites (or both), then I think it's more than likely that you will never be able to cure yourself forever. The parasites w...

Re: flaking?

Okay, you all know that I haven't even had a chance to start using the zz cream yet, (still waiting for it to get here) but I did use that sulfur soap for about 4-5 days. It seemed to help, I am clearing up but I'm all scaly and flaky??? I stopped using it just because I'm so dried up (not that tha...

Re: My take on it all.
