I have suffered with vitiligo since I was 18 (I'm now 61). I was
diagnosed with LS about 10 years ago. Does anyone else have
vitiligo as I have been told by my consultant that it is not uncommon
to have one with the other?
hi jan, i haven't got vitiligo but yes because it's an auto immune condition they do go hand in hand i'm afraid. Lots of us have other auto immune conditions which is a real pain. How do you manage you l.s.? Maybe you could give us all some tips as you've had it for 10 years. Take care

Hi there, Having read all the other comments I manage the LS much the
same as everyone else. I use Betnovate when it flares up and Paladin
to soothe the soreness. No magic formulas I'm afraid but it's nice to know
you are not on your own and can get support from other sufferers. You
take care too and thanks for your reply.
Hi there....yes I am a nice white all over my vulva! I was also told it was uncommon. I use dermovate as required, paladin and emu oil. I wash in aqueous cream and try to wash my hair before I shower. Wish I could offer more advice!
