Terrible experience with health service

@Yani09 it can be broken down somehow. It's biological. I sometimes think that some further testing would demonstrate what I am seeing as since I can see it with my eyes on the microscopic scale it is massive.

Two clinicians remarked on the 'yellow' but confused it with discoloured pigmentation. But it is evidence of what I am seeing.

What if this is in your mind? Maybe the dermatologists were right?

@Ranald This is very fanciful. Why this one thing? Why this one area of skin? Why can I point to a specific event and time and comment on the odour and slimey texture. Why is my reporting of it entirely consistent.

Why suddenly at 30 when I buy this suspicious microbial substance and apply it. Why no other time? There is no record of me complaining of a skin problem on my medical record prior to this. What 'if' I am right?

Ranald

Maybe you are right, and 8 consultants are wrong.

@ranald well, I am happy for this to be tested. I have pushed for whatever testing there is.

harry01

Since I can see it, it's pretty massive on a microscopic scale.

Can you upload an image of what you see through the microscope (drawing if you arent able to photograph it). What have you doctors said about what is visible through microscope?

Maybe you were unfortunate to have recieved something that wasn’t fit for purpose.

This then has altered your skin and no one can offer you an explanation or treatment. A rare reaction, unique to you.

Is it causing discomfort? It may be a case of having to accept they can’t explain this.

@Yani09 it was unfortunate. A dodgy seller. It's because of Amazon marketplace.

There is no reaction, though. It 'the microbial thing' bonded to my skin and was able to maintain itself on the skin in spite of the skin's shedding mechanism.

They haven't been able to, but there are lots of things we don't fully understand that we can still treat.

@slovinton I could try this. I was considering investing in a digital microscope/dermatoscope. They are expensive, mind. Some of the obstacle is cost. 500 pounds for this product. I was looking at a way I could maybe rent one.

Hopefully one day soon you will get this resolved. Maybe there was some malice at play. Best wishes.

Thank you @Yani09.
