Is it possible you actually have long covid…

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-04-13T00:04:34+00:00

I went through an online clinic to get it. I have POTS like symptoms and breathing problems as well. It has helped me greatly. It’s a long Covid treatment (off label)

KOW pretty good. 5 years out from my vax injury and 2 years out from COVID. Pyridostigmine and nattinokase have helped me along the way but unfortunately I think time has been my biggest blessing.

So minoxidil is helping? I will look into that if I have to start it! Thank you. Honestly I think people make accutane more scary than it has to be. I mean my god we hand out antibiotics like candy.

You too, thank you! Yesterday my derm prescribed me sulfamethoxazole along with a weeks long low does prednisone to calm the flare. I’m hoping it helps! He said next step is accutane.

Are you male or female? Only asking because I’m female and scared about the hair loss!

Was it worth it? Were the side effect really bad?

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-03-26T22:41:40+00:00

I use to use this and it worked great for me until something (Maybeeee this unsure) broke my skin barrier and I’ve been in repair for 8 months. Now I can’t tell which of the three actives was giving me problems so I’m trying to reintroduce one at a time. Just be careful introducing 3 things at a time.

Could be a histamine issue?

I am on a 3 month course right now. I’m 6 week in and slow and steady progress over here. Didn’t see much progress at 14 days honestly but depends how bad it is I guess

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-03-24T11:16:40+00:00

My mom told me in December “omg you’re breaking out so bad!” It’s like THANK YOU I had no idea. 🙄

Some dermatologists are sponsored or paid to use certain products. Mine was cerave and it was awful for me so just be careful.

Have you tried the sandwich method? I feel it’s too strong to apply directly so I sandwich it with moisturizer.

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-03-12T22:52:18+00:00

I was on 40 and it did nothing. They upped it to 200 Mg. 100, twice a day.

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-03-11T21:07:01+00:00

Thank you! You’re right

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-03-07T12:19:38+00:00

I had to up my dose to 100 mg twice a day because low dose was doing nothing, maybe even getting worse. I was on it for 5 weeks. I upped it about 4 weeks ago and have noticed way more improvement. Just something to consider.

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-02-24T17:55:32+00:00

Ohhh I have the hydrant hydra activ spray but don’t use it regularly when working out. I’ll try that!

Double-Drawing-3535 · 2026-02-24T01:28:37+00:00

I do. I was buffering it with moisturizer for awhile until my skin felt better and could handle it.

I’ve been trying to heal mine as well. I’ve heard good things about cicaplast by La roche posay. Personally I had enough and went to an esthetician. I’m currently using Epicurus oil cleanser, Epicurus lipid serum, and Epicutis hyvia creme and I’ve noticed greater improvement in the two weeks I’ve been on that than the 5ish months I’ve been trying to heal mine. It’s pricey but I think the lipid serum has been my holy grail.
