What Other Conditions Did You Get After Getting Vitiligo?
A MyVitiligoTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’m wondering what other conditions people got after being diagnosed with vitiligo. Or before for that matter. I’ve seen some discussions of psoriasis. What other conditions did you get? Did they come before or after the vitiligo?

Hi, i have made two appointments that have taken months to get. One in Florida and one in Raleigh NC.

Is It Vitiligo Or Something Else.
A MyVitiligoTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was diagnosed with Vitiligo at the age of four. I am now 28 and turning 29 this year. The hands and legs are covered in a white pot. Originally, they were only on my face. In my research on the internet, my symptoms seem to be quite similar to those of idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis. Although statistics show that it occurs when you are older and not when you are young.

I Was Told By A Health Provider To Take Vitamin D3 And Magnesium Glycinate To Slow Down The Vitiligo.
A MyVitiligoTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have no insurance. And want some insite as to what I can use over the counter to fade the vitiligo spots? It's spreading everywhere faster than ever before. Is it something I am eating?
