You are a true star for answering my queries. I know I am impatient but i remember once on Minocycline the acne started to improve at least after a couple of weeks. I know it is stronger which is why i am probably immune to it now as the last 3 month prescription didnt work.

I have put vinegar on my skin the last couple of mornings but has done nothing to stop the pain of the zits that are there so i am going to discontinue and just persevere with the differin i guess. I had dry skin for the first 2 weeks and an outbreak of horrendous cysts but now the drying seems a little better although the cysts still remain and i have some nasty painful zitty spots under my jaw which keep coming.

I too want to avoid Spiro and definately accutane. I used to take multi vitamin an zinc before starting acupuncture with chinese herbs but i stopped them when i started with the chinese remedy. I am no longer on those and am thinking of including zinc again...and possible saw palmetto. Do you think this would be advantageous? Sorry to bombard you with questions but i know you have had some success and need to know what i am doing will be worth it!

Thanks GovtProf.....
