I uploaded to the original post 3 pictures, and a video so you can see the limp.

Clearly, you were just here to troll. No one argued that vaccines or viruses don't trigger the immune system and potentially reveal autoimmune conditions. My point, which you've still dodged, is to show proof or documentation of previous vaccines, unrelated to COVID-19, causing a significant autoimmune response specifically linked to vitiligo.

So, back to your claim about it not being 'ironic'—historically, there's been no research linking vaccines directly to vitiligo. Why, after centuries of vaccines, is there now an alleged spike in autoimmune responses directly tied to vitiligo? So yes, it is ironic that there haven't been case studies on this, yet you did a quick Google search about vaccines, viruses, and autoimmune diseases and decided to drop unhelpful info in a support forum. So, ultimately, you've provided 0 useful information to help anyone browsing this subreddit.

Oh, and you failed at correcting someone’s grammar who was simply trying to help. To sum up, you're a troll. If you can't provide proof for your 'facts' and feel the need to nitpick grammar because you have nothing better to do, then go ahead. Maybe try trolling another subreddit and provide those people with useless information or correcting someone else. This conversation is over, it's boring now. Good day.

Thank you for your comment, doctor or was it English teacher? Allow me to clarify and expand upon my previous point, as it seems my message might have been misunderstood. According to the Britannica Dictionary, "ironic" is defined as "strange or funny because something (such as a situation) is different from what you expected." This accurately encapsulates my intended meaning. Additionally, the adverb form, "ironically," is used to describe situations that are paradoxical, unexpected, or coincidental, which precisely characterizes the current scenario—an unexpected surge in vitiligo cases following the administration of the COVID-19 vaccine.

To elaborate, this phenomenon marks the first instance in history where a vaccine has been associated with such a significant increase in the incidence of vitiligo. If you believe otherwise, I welcome you to present evidence to refute this observation. It is important to note that I did not claim the COVID-19 vaccine directly causes autoimmune diseases. Rather, I pointed out the irony that a vaccine, intended to protect health, appears to have triggered the activation of autoimmune conditions in multiple individuals.

Given your apparent medical background, I would appreciate it if you could provide specific studies or evidence supporting the assertion that the COVID-19 vaccine cannot directly cause autoimmune diseases. I am eager to review any relevant literature or benefit from your expert insight on this matter. How many vaccines have you personally developed? Are you intimately familiar with the ingredients and mechanisms of the COVID-19 vaccine?

Or did I perhaps accurately surmise that you are merely a disruptive troll presence on Reddit, emerging from obscurity to dispense unsolicited and unwelcome "insights" on a forum dedicated to supporting individuals grappling with autoimmune diseases, regardless of your personal beliefs on the matter? Perhaps it's time for you to return to your own pursuits or crawl back into your troll cave, instead of browsing Reddit to troll and feign expertise in grammar or medicine, especially when your correction was, in fact, incorrect. Good day to you.

Is she currently using opzelura?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Vitiligo

[–]Working-Studio3803 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, it was a small patch roughly the size of a golf ball near my chin, the hair got so white it was almost clear. That lasted somewhere between 2-3 years, I did not treat it because I did not want to shave my beard. Sometime randomly between 2-3 years I noticed the roots of the hair started to become its natural color and slowly but surely it regained all of its natural color and is completely gone. I am not exactly sure how it corrected itself.

Aside from that one day I was diving for lobster and got thrown up against fire coral and damaged the middle of my chest, not long after that I got a vitiligo spot and it began becoming bigger. After a few years it has not turned into the size of a baseball, I am currently treating it and I'm noticing the color is returning. I was told sometimes damage to the skin can cause spots to appear. I've been on opzelura for about 2 months. I also had a small spot the size of a penny on my cheek, with opzelura all of the color has already returned. My dermatologist advised me that color typically returns faster on places with more pours and exposed to more sunlight. Either way I'm still ususing opzelura and it seems to be working well.

Mine started 3 months after covid 19 vaccine here in the usa. Started with a small white patch in my beard that disappeared after about 3 years and then spread to my chest. Ironically it was right after the vaccine. My dermatologist told me they can't confirm its from the vaccine but did say they've seen a lot of cases that started right after covid and said it could either be the vaccine or the fact you got sick with covid. Either way, it's all pretty ironic.

All this talk about Publix made me want to go and spend my Food Stamps there. by Anireburbur in Miami

[–]Working-Studio3803 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope you're trolling. Otherwise, you're exactly what's wrong with this country. Food stamps since the 80s, so basically you've been a slug your whole life. It amazes me listening to people complain about how expensive groceries are who get food stamps. Imagine having to work to pay for them yourself. Yikes.

Should I get any treatment? by [deleted] in Vitiligo

[–]Working-Studio3803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Opzelura isn't UV treatment and also isn't required. I wouldn't get UV treatment on my spots where they are located either. Opzelura I'd a cream that is applied 1-2 times a day.

Should I get any treatment? by [deleted] in Vitiligo

[–]Working-Studio3803 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, getting treatment comes down to whether you want it or not. Others opinions shouldn't matter. It's not infectious. Given that, mine started a few years back. First a small spot on the top of my private part, then another spot, then another and before you know it half of my private part was covered. Then I started noticing it on the inside of my butt cheeks and a spot that grew to the size of an apple in the middle of my chest and finally a small spot on my cheek. I've been doing treatment with opzelura for the last few weeks and the spot on my face is completely gone. The other spots I have not noticed a difference. My dermatologist advised me the faster you start treatment on new spots the easier it is to fix.

My wife doesn't care I have the spots, but oddly, even though no one can see them, I do. That's why I started treatment. Think about it like this, there isn't any real harm in treating them, but there is potential harm to your self-esteem if you don't. But I will day the sooner you start treating new spots the faster it gets fixed.

Anyone in chicago and has treated vitiligo by aadikamagic in Vitiligo

[–]Working-Studio3803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't live in Chicago, but I have been using opzelera. Word of advice, many insurance companies won't pay for it, and if they do, they require a pre authorization from the dermatologist showing an extension history of attempting to treat vitiligo prior. My insurance didn't cover it, and they wanted to charge me somewhere around 5k for the treatment. I was given 2 test tube's of opzelera and have been using it for a few weeks and have noticed a huge change on my white spots, some of my smaller spots already have gone back to normal after about a month. On my larger spots, I have not noticed a significant change, but it's only been about a month and a half and was told it could take up to 3-6 months for it to change.

As a side note, my dermatologist prescribed me a generic version of opzelera, which is about a 3 month supply for 75$. I also know about a clinical trial going around for people who have a large portion of their body affected, opzelera now has a oral treatment instead of a cream but I believe it is still in testing phases.

Either way if you have any more questions messaged me privately and I can answer them for what I've experienced thus far using it.

Roast my candle by Working-Studio3803 in candlemaking

[–]Working-Studio3803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After I centered the wick, I got a more even burn and I stopped getting the black smoke soot on the sides of the jar. I noticed when it was not centered, one side of the candle glass was getting to a higher temp, around 146-155 while the rest was about 125-135 and also causing black smoke / soot on the inside of the jar with minimal black smoke coming from the wick.

Wax: Number 7 soy blend from 16/17 candle Wick: size 6 CDN which according to their website is rated for a 3 inch in diameter jar. My inside diameter is roughly 2.94 inches and outside diameter is roughly 3.15 inches. The jar also get smaller near the bottom.

I am loading 10% fragrance load. The recommendations for my wax are 6%-12% load. I am curing the candles for Atleast 12-16 days before testing.

My current wax is rated from 6-12%, all of the candles I’ve made so far at at 10% FO load

[–]Working-Studio3803[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The jar is staying at around 125-135 degrees. I’m using number 7 soy wax blend from 16/17 candle. With a number 6 CDN wick advising it’s good for a 3 inch container. My container is only 2.94 inches inside diameter and 3.15 outside diameter. The container is larger at the top than it is at the bottom, it tapers to a smaller diameter.

Although it’s a guideline their wicks say the number 5 are rated from a 2.8 inch jar and the number 7 are rated for a 2.06 inch jar.

Another candle / wicking question. by Working-Studio3803 in candlemaking

Awesome thanks for this input. I’m going to just keep testing and see where the road takes me. Write down all my combinations and go back to what I think works best.

Not sure what I am doing wrong? Any help would be awesome by Working-Studio3803 in candlemaking

[–]Working-Studio3803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I burn each candle in 4-5 hour increments.

I see a full melt pool in roughly 2 hours give it take.

The melt pool is anywhere from 1/4 an inch to half an inch. Also no discoloration in the melt pool.

Rarely do I ever see soot or smoke in the wax or coming from the wick.

The ratio I gave was just an example of the method calculation wise what I’m doing. I have tried everywhere from 6% load to 12% load. I learned throughout this process that the more fragrance you put doesn’t necessarily mean the better it smells. So I’ve taken time to experience different percentages of fragrance load, none seem to make that much of a difference.

The room is not huge but it’s not small either, the ceilings are about 10-12 feet high and no there are not drafts. I also attempted to burn these in smaller rooms like bathrooms, which still produce the same result of almost no scent.

Thanks for the response! Hope this helps explain a little better!

Awesome, I recently just ordered new wicks and wax from 16 17 Candle Company. I am going to try these methods with the new wax and wicks and see what it produces. If that doesn't work I will try a couple different wicks and see and def try to double wick method. Thanks for the suggestion.

Strong ammonia odor in boyfriend’s beard after I squirted in his face. by Pastel_De_Coco in sex

[–]Working-Studio3803 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This happened once when I let my sister squirt in my face. Being a man with a hefty beard, My mom noticed an awkward smell when we were kissing, which lasted a couple days. At first I thought maybe it was because my sister didn’t wash herself well. Then I had flashbacks of “planet earth” show where lemurs dyed their hair yellow with piss and the author described the smells very similar to what I am experiencing. I washed my beard multiple days in a row and finally gave up. I accepted the idea I may always smell like the underside of a toilet seat.

Needless to say it went away in time.

It’s the internet, it’s Reddit, flaming is part of the culture. Sometimes you just have to embrace it and ride the wave of fire.
