Hello all GA friends,

I have it for 10 years now. I live in the Caribbean, St Barth. Lots of sun and ocean.

I am 53, mine started before menopause.

My GA is not all over but I have had a few on my back for 5 years that went away. one on my neck for 3 years that went away. Now one on my hand that has taken 7 years to spread away.

Mine start as a dot, spread bigger over the 7 years to the size of a lime then disappear.

There is one women here who had it all over her body. She went to a doctor in France who has a technique of looking into your eye to see all the problems in your body. Heilpraktiker

I can tell you she has almost completely cured herself by being very vigilant with the ampules he prescribed. the GA is at bay with only a few faded spots.

I went to see him too. ( i will say not super easy to get to because he lives in a small town) Paris - train or plane to Nante then taxi to Paimboeuf France. I am not as covered as she was and i only have one left that has almost disappeared.

The French are very big on homeopathic medicine.

My prescription was a bit different then hers with the dosage. But relatively the same. It seems to be Immune and allergy

I am happy to communicate with anyone who wants to know more. Since I have seen specialists in France , Italy, USA and here in the Caribbean.

I will say from my deepest thoughts. There is no complete cure.

My good friend in NY studies cures in a lab for skin problems. She says they do not put research money

to GA because it is a cosmetic problem without deadly or sickly symptoms. The modern medication is far worse for the liver and you then the problem.

All the best Lisa

    Our son who is a cancer research scientist said the same thing. Because it's not contagious, painful, or life-threatening, research money isn't available. I've had ga for about 15 yrs and just in the last year it has started to fade. No idea why!
