Because I'm exploring the possibility of a common link. Thanks for
your answers.

BTW: What "diet" are you on and has it made all of your acne
disappear? Please be specific. Thanks

I eat primarily raw fruits and veggies. Vegetarian. No processed foods.

And you have no acne?

As long as I stick to my diet then I have no acne. I break out when I eat
refined sugar, nuts or take B vitamins.

I don't drink any milk. Occasionally I'll have some cheese. But that's
like once a month. I don't eat any cereal. I will have a piece of bread at
lunch sometimes. My diet consists of raw fruits and raw veggies. Most of
my carbs come from fruit and fruit juices.

Got frequent resp. tract infections till I quit smoking.

Stopped ringing in ears when headaches and neck pain eased up some.

Neck & shoulder pain has eased.

I'm allergic to almost all fuits and seed and seafood (I'm a real tough chic

Unrelated to skin, but after I had a kid I started to get IBS. Started
feeling queasy all the time, etc. Lots of digestive confusion. After a
year or two of just dealing with it, I heard a tip to try taking calcium
supplements and they have solved the problem (as long as I remember to
take them).
(In my case, I think a calcium deficiency developed from nursing a baby
and that extended calcium loss caused the problem.)

If I pop a calcium tab whenever I drink coffee, my stomach is much less
trouble than it was.. I don't know if this will help anyone else here
with it, but I wanted to mention it because IBS is a pita..
