    Hi Tracey

    Yes I find my area too is very dark. At first I was shocked and feared the worst as I'm very pale skinned and had always been a pink colour until I developed LS just over 2 years ago then the white patches appeared which I have still got but other areas very dark. I saw GP recently and she said it was normal with LS. Hope this helps as this LS journey really is no joke☹ x
