That should pass. The ACV guy is a nut job. That's crazy you only lasted a week. LOL. I'd be curious to see how many people are still in the group. I'm really not sure what this guy's motive is.

I've been going through some older messages to look for some experience and success of protopic... very encouraging.....sortof. It definetly makes me itch.. just put it on tonight but it says it will for a few days. Fingers crossed this works. I noticed people have posted some messages about the ACV group. I joined that the start of January and the guy booted me off the group after 1 weeks cos i ate some stuff not on his diet list. I find it quite funny reading some of the messages about it. I thought it was 'just me' not having the will power but i reckon he's a bit of a nutjob now. He runs it more like a cult than a group. Thats my digs in anyway. I found it didnt make any difference apart from making my nose even more red (thought not possible) and making my <!--more--> hair the healthiest it has ever been, did it good. - Dustine hey all.

Shortly thereafter I received a response which said trash everything I was doing and follow the vinegar, diet and shower regimines. I'm open to new ideas and will probably try the regimines. However, having a scientific background, I asked for an explanation/rationale. Even if not supported by analysis and data, at least I'd like to know why someone thinks it works before I stop eating my favorite foods or turn my head into a pickle... Well the next day I'm suddenly no longer a member of the group :) I assume it is because I 'questioned' the regimine. You hit the nail on the head... Is this guy a cult leader? Do I have to drink the coolaid? Anyway, I posted my problems. Shortly thereafter I received a

Are there people having good results with this? For those curious about the long-term efficacy of Protopic, here's an update. I have very severe sebderm on my face. I've been using Protopic for several months now. For the first month or so I had COMPLETE clearance of all sebderm flaking, redness, etc. My skin was (no exaggeration here) perfect. Wow, what a carefree vacation from the affliction that was! Sadly, its effectiveness has been gradually declining since that time, though it still definitely helps. If <!--more--> I stop using it for even a day, I get a little flare. On day 2 without Protopic, it's back full force. As long as I continue to use it every night, I am able to do some minor deflaking every morning and stay clear all day. I don't experience much, if any, redness while on the Protopic. No one would ever suspect I have any kind of skin problem. In my experience, it's the most valuable weapon in the arsenal I've found, but alas, no cure.

I joined the group just hoping that it would offer another outlet for people to share ideas on seb derm. I never understood his reasons for kicking out people who didn't share their story or post. What would be the reason for that? I understand wanting some participation, but there were plenty of people willing to post. If someone is helped even if they don't post, what is the wrong in that? Besides, maybe those people would eventually feel comfortable to post...or maybe they may find a solution to seb derm. A few times he had deleted some posts of mine because they were off topic to ACV, yet were about seb derm. Yet he posted off topic ideas all the time. The group would be great without the gestapo tactics. I'm not sure what the motivation is behind all that. Oh well. It's his group. I guess I can't complain. I just think it would be a much <!--more--> better group if it was open to new ideas or ideas in conjunction with ACV. Having said all that, I've found ACV to help for short periods of time, but it tended to cause me other problems too. Pretty much like everything else out there. It may work for his brother and others, but in the end I felt it was causing me more problems than it was helping. Eric Many people have had issues with him. I joined the group just hoping
