I'm 27 and have had TV for about 6 years now on and off. I have tried everything you can think of. The Sporonox that I was prescribed by a dermitologist did the job completely, but the pills cost 190 dollars US (not covered by any insurance because its not life threatening) and within a year the problem was right back again. I have tried the selsin blue theory and that didn't work so great either. Then I found this website claiming a "natural" cure for it and decided to try it as it was only 30 bucks or so. This stuff is *mud*. Literally Mud from the bottom of a lake bed. You smear this mud all over your body (my TV effects me from neck to midsection) and you feel like you just stemped out of a swamp. Let the mud dry on your skin (about 10-15 mins) and then wash it off real good and put some lotion on. I have done 3 applications so far and my "blotches" are thining out so much you can hardly see them anymore. I am really convinced that this product works, but who knows for how long. Websites out there selling it claim that "several users have never had re-occurances since using this product" but I will believe that when I see it. Bottom line, if you're looking for something new that isn't available at walmart or walgreens, try Saprox. It's been doing great for me, and if it is a cure-all I will be soooooooooooo happy. The spots don't bother me, but it's tough to get chicks when your chest looks polka-dotted and very unpleasant to the eye. Good luck
