"Do you want the red or the blue pill" ???

[Slopoke79]

My favorite movie quote. lol. Alrighty all joking aside this crap sucks, 12 docters(3 skin spec.& 1 infectious disease) nothing besides finding "heavy ecoli growth but no fungal or yeast" from skin biopsy of the sores, they just keep bouncing me around, give me cream or pill and schedule a follow up in six weeks. I've bathed with borax,iodine,selsun blue,salt,chlorine,lemons,hebiclens,mustard, you name it i've tried it, including liquid lysol [don't try-tasted it for days]. So what really works? 1.CETAPHIL gentle skin cleanser 2. Jetdry dishwasher cleaner[ 3.Baby powder. You can get all 3 at wal-mart. The cetaphil apply everywhere and leave on, i use 20 oz spray bottle 1/4 cup jetdry & 25 pumps of cetaphil, top off with hot water, spray body and leave on, i rotate between the two all day. Then bath time, i use 2 bottles jetdry & about 1/4 bottle cetaphil, get out dry off then rub in baby powder[watch how many fibers come out]. Why this works i don't know, but the jetdry dries the sores from the inside out, even my old sores(scars) reopened and healed. Try it and see for yourself, play around with the spray bottle mix, you want it to sting not burn the hell out of yourself. Here are some pics of my sores(nests).

Slopoke - I just broke out in tears looking at your first picture. That is exactly what mine looks like (except more irregular shape). That is the best picture of the white bean things I have seen. I just feel like there's more validity to what I have, even though we all have talked about it on here.

The jetdry makes me a little nervous, but I can't tell you how many times I've looked at the Cetaphil wondering if it might work. I just came from the store too - bummer.

Thank you very much for your tips and photos!

By the way - are you doing ok down there in Texas??

Please don't use JET DRY--agree with you megluth72. It makes me very nervous too:

Jetdry scared me to but it's the only that works, after using it the sores don't put out that syrup. Yes i first started off with a very small amount and worked my way up, and i suggest everyone else does the same. I've been a genie-pig, trying to figure out something that works, while watching my wife and 3 year-old get worse. It kinda sucks waking up every morning to my son crying & scratching, telling me the ants are biting him, and just being able to spray bactine on him telling him it will be o.k. One of the doc's agreed that he has the same thing, but replied she had no answers for us, and put him on liquid ampicillan and lotrimin ultra. Oh ya my 105 lb dog has it to, took her to the vet about the sores, they gave some spray, and told me she has compulsive disorder that i need to get her to stop nawing on herself. I got nothing to lose so jetdry away! This sore is after jetdry, notice the dry lumps no goo to protect them.

I see that the main ingredient in jetdry is citric acid (50-60%). That would explain why it would work like it does. Just be careful using it. We don't want you to finally heal the sores but grow a third arm from it.

Wasn't Marc from M-R-O saying something about citric acid having the reverse effect in the long term? I don't remember where that was posted.

I feel your pain slopoke. I am so sick of this and the "cleanings" over and over. It just doesn't end and it's really pissing me off. It's like a reoccurring nightmare. Take care of yourself and your family, ok? - And hey, welcome to the board!! Glad to have you here!

Here are some new pics of the same sores after 2 weeks using jetdry. Alot of new one's did breakout but dry-up and go away. I know this is working because they are not leaving any circle scars once you get it all out. Also all the white dots in my lips and mouth are coming out and i don't spray there.
