Pityriasis rosea

A few people have asked me about the outcome of my skin.
I am happy to say that all those hundreds and hundreds of scab marks have gone away. At first, there were dark marks but slowly but surely, even those are going away. I still have about 2 bigger spots left but they are very faint. I have to admit that getting Pityrose has made me take better care of my skin. I had to constantly put on lotion to keep from itching but it has made my skin softer than I knew I could get it. I am also a big fan of loofahs now too. Because my skin was flaking excessively, I had to loofah everyday ( to give you an idea of how much flaking was going on, I had to wash my sheets every day and vacuum, cause the flakes were visable. I know, GROSS!)

For all you folks that have PS, there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

    I don't think people ever realize how much flaking there is until they actually have it or seen it. One of my best friends had this a few years ago and I saw it first hand. Gross is the word for it alright. I'm glad you got through it with no scars!
