I'm sure I'm sure
I am sure that my recent relapse was caused by mites that had contact with cats. The mites were carried on a dog to my face. I do not touch cats. I occasionally touch dogs other than my own. Only one dog I touched lives with cats. It was the dog I picked up to keep it from running away. It rubbed an...

Protein transport
Mites bring foreign proteins into my skin. If the protein comes from a horse or cat, the inflammation rapidly expands and becomes a crisis. Probably many mites enter my skin without consequences. If a mite brings proteins that I am allergic to, and brings bacterial cells as well, then I have a full-...

The Male Factor
Marla, I can almost guarantee you that acne has a genetic component to it. In other words, some people are genetically susceptible to getting acne. Most people get acne when they're teenagers, but it doesn't carry over into adulthood for them. Only a small percentage of people still have it in adul...

Why?
Steve, here's my take on why we get acne after contact, and others go through life with angelic complexions: 1) Demodex causes my acne. I established this myself through extended microscopic examination in correlation with the condition of my skin. 2) There is a familial tendency toward acne in the ...

Maybe 6 days ago
Was it about 6 days ago that I helped a neighbor catch her runaway dog? The girl has demodicosis. She lives among many cats as well. I posted about 3 days later. I had a cyst behind my ear. I had two beginning red bumps on my face. ZZ spot treatment worked right away. I also put it all over my face ...

Where are our regulars?
Yes, Steve, this svelte forum is a major improvement.
If our fellow demodicosis members are intimidated, I urge them to do stuff till something works. (The person who is my source for this concept uses the acronym: "DSTIW"!)
Dive in and try some things.
