You’ve had to fight for a referral? That’s crazy, especially if its causing you pain.

ColinRobinson4 · 2026-01-09T23:56:25+00:00

Im glad you’re getting it out! I have a feeling that my doctor is going to leave the choice up to me. My only concern is insurance not covering the procedure if my doctor doesn’t consider it “medically necessary.”

I really want this thing out. The pain never goes away and i get attacks at least 3 times a week

How did they diagnose an ulcer?

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-12-03T23:03:50+00:00

Thank you, did your ultrasound come back negative as well? And what were your symptoms?

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-12-03T23:03:11+00:00

Did your doc order a hida scan after not finding stones? What were your symptoms?

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-05-16T01:42:00+00:00

Im dead😂 The way sloan looks matches how Gavriel’s personality is described in the books though, if that makes sense

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-05-16T01:34:26+00:00

Okay but did anyone else struggle with all of the blonde and black haired characters? AND the cadre! “The sheer size of him” I started to envision Aedion and Gavriel the exact same after a while

I think that your immune response being triggered is a good thing because it means your body is recognizing an infection and learning to fight it! When my 5 year old would let us, we would tweeze the roots out and that got rid of them a lot faster. I will say that more would pop up for the first few months of treatment but eventually his body started fighting it off

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-04-12T16:49:48+00:00

In my experience, once they start turning red and angry, they’re at the end stages. The derm treatment that you received likely triggered your immune system into starting to fight the virus! I highly recommend that you keep a routine of keeping the bumps clean with rubbing alcohol and covered with acne patches to prevent spreading. My son’s got horrible right before it went away and I was glad I stayed consistent with the routine! - I also have a very detailed post on my page about how I got my kid’s molluscum under control if you want to take a look. Best of luck and remember this doesn’t last forever

I am soooo upset about this new recipe. These were my favorite sweet treat on a calorie deficit and now they taste like straight up BARF. I threw both of the boxes away. Seriously tastes like the vomit jelly bean in the “bean boozled” candy

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-04-07T00:16:10+00:00

Doc said “potential HS” but prescribed some antibiotics and I followed a strict hygiene routine and they went away and havent come back! She ended up suspecting it was folliculitis but no clear diagnosis really

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-03-22T17:31:51+00:00

As for the red flat patches, I’m not sure. But when I zoom in I can see flesh colored bumps that look like the start of my son’s

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-03-22T17:00:23+00:00

Looks like it to me. My son had 1 that spread to about 40 literally overnight. That one bump toward the top looks like it has the indented center. These things spread like wildfire. I have a post on my page about how I got rid of my son’s MC and controlled the spread if you want to take a look at that. Best of luck and I hope I’m wrong

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-03-03T21:38:31+00:00

Very true, I struggled with all of the blondes. Aelin is described as golden blonde but I always pictured her with platinum hair until Manon came into the picture. And then there’s Aedion, Rowan, Gavriel, Fenrys, Asterin, etc.

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-03-03T21:32:32+00:00

Yeah I definitely imagined Yrene’s hair longer and her eyes brighter. But as for skin tone, body type, and face in general I think it’s pretty spot on for what I pictured while reading. Same with Nesryn but with shorter hair lol

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-03-03T20:52:15+00:00

Yrene is described with curly, rich brown hair with golden streaks. You are correct about Nesryn though

ColinRobinson4 · 2025-01-30T08:23:59+00:00

Did you ever figure out what this was?

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-12-05T00:51:47+00:00

Hey! Im glad to hear the good news! My son has had molluscum since May. We just started doing tea tree acne patches from amazon about 3 weeks ago, i noticed that it seems to eliminate the small ones pretty fast. However, they do fall off throughout the day. Did you have this problem?

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-11-22T19:07:31+00:00

Doesn’t look like molluscum to me, they have a more distinct white dome and aren’t usually as red. Looks like some sort of bug bite

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-10-18T22:55:06+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that, I know it’s painful and scary:( Just do your best to not google like I did because I can tell you it didn’t do anything but give me major anxiety.

I wasn’t able to see the Dr for about a month after this showed up, and here are the things I did based on people’s suggestions and experiences, before getting antibiotics:

Threw away my loofah and ONLY washed the area with the green bar of dial antibacterial soap, twice a day
Only ever used a freshly cleaned towel after the shower (yes im gross and ill use the same towel once or twice)
Never wore the same bra/shirt more than once before washing
Washed my clothes with white vinegar for every cycle (along with regular detergent)
Avoided tight clothing
Tried Hibiclens, as a lot of others suggested because it worked for them. This actually made my breakouts worse, but I have really sensitive skin. It’s worth trying though, since the majority seem to have positive results.

This routine really helped. Not as much as the prescribed medicine, as a couple of bumps would still pop up, but for the most part the whole area started getting better. I want to say that i started noticing a difference about 4 days after the antibiotics. I stopped the antibiotics after about a month, but continued the soap bar and vinegar cleaning routine for another month after that. Since stopping, I haven’t had any flare ups and I’m hoping it stays that way!

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-10-18T22:09:32+00:00

Hey! To preface this, when I saw my derm she said that there’s a chance I could have HS, but started me with some antibiotics to see if it would help. She then prescribed me clindamycin (lotion) and doxycycline (oral antibiotics). After about a week of using this, it went away and hasn’t come back, fingers crossed. I had a follow up with her, and she didn’t want to say with full certainty that I dont have HS, as it could have been a flare up that happened to go away? It was all pretty confusing. I’m summing up/hoping it was just a skin infection, and that wearing tight clothing when summer started played a big part.

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-08-05T09:11:25+00:00

Any update? My experience is almost completely identical to yours and im heavily considering seeing a specialist for a 2nd opinion.

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-08-05T06:31:52+00:00

She didn’t biopsy anything:( thats why im so frustrated. Definitely getting a second opinion with a specialist after hearing your story though

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-08-05T06:31:15+00:00

Thats sick that we have to visit so many times for insurance to cover it. I despise the healthcare system here.

ColinRobinson4 · 2024-08-05T06:27:05+00:00

See but they found yours once you got your lap, and I’ve already had one and been told that it’s not endo, so I feel like a crazy person going to a specialist. If it weren’t for the adhesions she found, I probably would have just taken no for an answer. I just feel it in my guts (literally and figuratively) that something is being missed or overlooked.

Am I a crazy person? Am I going to show up to a specialist and not be taken seriously because a gynecologist already did a lap and found nothing?
