No Roaccutane, No Turmeric
Two weeks have passed since I stopped taking Turmeric for the folliculitis on my scalp. It's interesting that the folliculitis hasn't returned with a vengeance like I thought it would. In fact, the top and sides of my scalp have been quite clear of any spots. It's only been the lower back of my scalp that's had a number of spots appear. But that being said, I've found the spots clear quite quickly within a few days and that the spots that do appear don't seem to be part of a cluster as it would have been prior to taking Roaccutane. It's almost as through either the Roaccutane or the Turmeric has made the condition of my scalp less prone to the spots becoming infected. I'm very glad of that as my body seems to be able to control and efficiently heal the few spots that do appear now.

Stopped Taking Turmeric for Folliculitis
I had to stop taking turmeric completely last Tuesday. In fact, I did not take the third dose on Monday night as my abdominal pains had gotten worse and was affected by diarrhoea. The pains and diarrhoea have now gone away. I've noticed a few new spots of folliculitis appear here and there on my scalp but it's not to a level I'm too concerned about. I'll see how many more days it will take for the folliculitis to flare-up again.
