Here is the good side.
Symptoms may be reduced with topical treatment or taking extra precaution to prevent overheating, and the rash will usually clear on its own in six to eight weeks. Once a person has pityriasis rosea, they generally have lifelong immunity.
Hello Craig
Yes i did notice that but after reading others stories, whether if someones telling the truth or not (but i dont see why they would lie about something like this, but who knows), some people said they have had reocurrences of it. I read one guys story who said after 20 years from his first outbreak he got it again. One person said they got at 13 and every year till they were 21 they kept getting it. I dont know if maybe they tried some kind of remedy that didnt let this thing fully develop and go away so they immune system could build up a defense so it wont come back again or if in general they have a weak immune system.
Me personally i was prescribe prednisone and to take benadryl. I took the prednisone and benadryl for a week and that those made me feel like i was dying all day long and i was terrified of falling asleep, scared i wouldnt wake up again. So i stop taking them. First i thought it was the benadryl so i was taking the prednisone by itself and the same feeling happened so i stop taking that too and i felt alot better. I told my doc i would rather deal with the itching than deal with feeling like i was dying all day long and scared to go to sleep.
All in all, the prednisone, i will give it some credit because it was keeping it from outbreaking all over my body real bad but really not by much---i could only tell the difference after i stop taking it but then again that is the way this "disease" is, you should breakout everywhere.
I had decided to just let me get the full worse of it now, get it over with, pray CONSTANTLY that it wont last past 3 months like some who said they even had for over a year, pray the scars go away like its supposed to and pray that i never get it again (basically building up a strong immunity to it).
I will say though about the pills they gave---ive never been one to take medicine ever not even aspirin for headaches so maybe those pills hit me real hard.
I pray and probably for the rest of life will pray that i never get it again like some.
