Peace be yours. Folliculitis?????? Is that what is on my scalp?????? Today is the 21st day of October 2012 and my scalp is still producing the glue like substance that sticks hairs together and stiffens .....what hair? I have continued to shave my head. I continue( for nine months) to use the QUICK SHOT cortizon 1% spray, it cools and coats and eases the feeling on my scalp. I went to another Dr. of Dermatology.....he said, "don't see a thing on your head, can't treat what I can't see." Thankfully he didn't charge me for that visit.
I've decided that I need a lifestyle change of some kind. I'm to go on a cruise with my elder sister who recently lost her husband. I have changed my diet now too. I eat beef once a week, fish once a week and the other days only veggies. Something has to give.
I will be going to an authentic chinese herbalist and another round of acupuncture. I haven't had acupuncture since the very beginning(almost 3 years ago) because of the deep pain I felt when the needle went into my scalp...I have always loved acupuncture and it never hurt me until that one scalp needle.
Shaving all the hair off is the best thing for me. It seems to be so much worse when my hair is longer, I'm talking a half inch of hair! Can't take it! It's getting cold here in the South USA so hats are particularly comfortable for now.
I'll write again in the future, hopefully I'll be writing about my HEALING! An answer to my prayers and YOURS. {Sunday October 21st 2012}

108 Days
June 9, 2012
Day 108 of shaving my head once a week and using the cortizone 1% cream. What does this tell you????? 108 days into this new diagnosis.....I'm a little better. My scalp looks a little better on the top of my head, but the stuff is spreading down the sides and the back of my scalp. I also doubt that the whole scalp is actinic keratosis. I have one more doctor to see. What I have starting using which eases the sting and crusty hair is pure coconut oil. I like using this all over my scalp once or twice a day. Hopefully you will find what works for you. I'm still seeking. I know it's related to my activity level that much is for sure. It takes about twenty minutes each morning for my sleeping scalp to begin sprouting up its crusty "stuff". When I'm very active, it sprouts up. When I get anxious, it sprouts up. Every thing I have done so far has helped me get through the day hoping for a cure. A cure would be no more sprouting of crusty sticky stuff, no more dirty roots of my hair, no more darkened dirty looking scalp, no more shaving my hair. HEALED. I'll be so happy, so grateful to finally be able to say that.
Using all my little tips will help you each day, you will see a change. Light and Love to you.

Let's see: Today is March 23, 2012 Friday.
I have received an additional diagnosis, actinic keratosis, not malignant! This is over exposure to the sun. This is what my last biopsy produced from the top of my scalp! I still have dirty roots and a substance that comes up through the hair holes with the dirty roots. My new doctor, doctor #6 told me to treat the keratosis with cortizone 1% cream.
This is a relief. What I did was shave my head. Thank you God. This has been the best thing I could have done. Now instead of getting my hair stuck in the cream, I have no hair and can SEE my scalp with the aid of two mirrors and I can TREAT my scalp fully. I apply the cream and it seems to be melting the build up from the folliculitis. I can almost feel my true scalp again and it has started to itch in places.
I highly recommend any one who is "suffering" from folliliculitis shave the head and treat your head with the cleansers and the cortizon 1% see what happens. This is DAY 25 shaved using the 1% cream. I feel much better and more alive.
Don't forget to call in your Guardian Angels, the Archangels and keep your prayers going out to the Great Spirit. When you do this, their guidance with help you each step. I have had this for sixteen months.
When you find a treatment that works, please post it here too!
Thank you.
