Oh Happy Day!
🕑 Added 2017-04-25 17:23:26 +0000 UTC I I got word back that my ultrasound and blood work came back with no negative results. Ultimately, this is good news because it means my hormone levels are okay and I don't have any allergies according to what they found. This is also frustrating because I don't have anything saying "THIS is why you have acne!" I am looking into seeing an allergist, because I know that when they do general allergy testing it usually isn't very in depth.I'm catching up on more computer work today and will have some new stuff posted here a bit later. ๐ฌ
After finding a hilarious folder of behind the scenes shots from a couple years ago last night, I think I'm going to start uploading sets of behind-the-scenes pictures into Pixiesets. I find it really interesting to see all of that stuff, but I want to make sure that something all of you would enjoy as well. I know not everyone can see the set I posted last night (because it's kind of more on the naughty side...lol), but for those of you who can, is that something you would like to see more of? Most of the pictures I get like that are pretty goofy, but I think it's fun to see the interaction of everybody on a photo or video shoot. Heck, even at events! I don't really have a place anywhere else where I can share more than a handful of photos from a single event, so I thought it would be nice to put everything here instead of just one or two pics.
Uncensored pic coming up for the $10+ tiers!

Thank you so much for the info! I have heard that the blood test for allergies is kind of a waste of time from most people. I think there must be something in my diet that keeps it flared up. But at the same time, part of me isn't sure because it comes and goes for months at a time and I generally eat the same foods. I find it funny how we have made all these advances in medicine, yet things like acne and a common cold are impossible to cure. lol
Ugh, I tried to edit my post to finish my thought but it didn't post?! Anyhoooooo, as I was saying: ...and according to trusted medical journals, acne is not related to food allergies. It's related to hormonal fluctuations, even small fluctuations. That's why it can happen as a teen, during and post pregnancy, PMS, and again with peri menopause. Stress hormones can be a factor as well. I can tell you that acidic foods can cause breakouts when it gets on your face! Tomatoes and pineapple make the skin around my mouth breakout if I eat too much of it! Good luck!! Keep us updated!!
Hi Annalee! Sorry this is happening to you. My chin acne drove me CRAZY for years. Still have breakouts ๐. Just be careful what allergist you go too. I'm a nurse for a fabulous allergist/immunologist in Ohio. Skin testing is the most accurate! Blood testing is not a very good diagnostic tool when it comes to food allergies. It's more of a "screening" tool. According to my physician, who is triple board certified; allergy/immunology, internal medicine, and pediatrics
