Well... that was unexpected

Sometimes, you don't realise what you already have. This blog reminded me of that.

I'm currently trying to launch another blog. It's not going so well. Between 0 and 11 views per day, despite the fact I'm doing a 30 day blog challenge, which is teaching me a lot about promoting my blog. The total number of views (it's been in place for just over a month) is 66 views.

This blog, by comparison, is at about 11,300 views, and gets between 20-90 views each day. And all the promotion I've ever done is mentioning it once on a foreskin restoration forum, and once on a homepathy forum. Which means that most of the readers here are probably coming from Google, thanks to their own searches. I'm really quite humbled by all of this. To think there was once a time when I felt like a real victim of BXO. My progress was almost unnoticeable, and I didn't know whether the only way out would be to face a circumcision (making me the world's first person to undergo two circumcisions). And now here I am today, with a resource that is clearly helping people suffering from this most strange of diseases, Lichen Sclerosus et Atrophicus, or Balanitis Xerotica Obliterans. It makes me realise I should appreciate what I have here. An audience, but more importantly, an audience made up of people I have helped, or might maybe help.

You might be interested to know that, while I don't post so frequently here, I visit it almost every day. I love seeing comments from people, and I love responding to them.

I don't really have a lot to say, other than thank you for visiting, and I'm really glad to be helping people.

As good as it gets (with pics)

I thought it was time I did an update with pictures. This is more or less what I have been looking like now for some time now. I think it's safe to say that what I have now is as good as it's going to get. Considering what I looked like when I started, I don't think it's bad going. Here's a list of all the issues I no longer have: Fully normal sexual function, without risk of injury Skin feels normal and supple to the touch, and has regained sensitivity Skin looks normal by and large, particularly on top No partner has ever commented that anything looks abnormal I feel 'normal' again But of course, it's not perfect. I've had to accept a few slight issues: A very small amount of itching sometimes occurs after sexual activity There are still some small areas of white skin I have to maintain dryness. I don't know this for a fact, but due to the slow progression of this disease, it's not something that is conducive to experimentat

BXO Healing Guide

After considerable time contemplating how I could best serve the world of BXO sufferers, I am pleased to finally bring you the BXO Recovery Plan . The plan is a step-by-step process detailing each of the stages in the healing process and what you should do along the way. Initially I contemplated making an eBook, but in the end I decided against this for several reasons. First, I'm not qualified in functional or natural medicine, and I didn't feel write publishing a book giving advice about this. Second, I don't want to reveal my identity. I don't know how feasible this is when publishing a resource and collecting income from it. But what finally helped me make my decision was this: You have all suffered and paid enough already. I know what it's like when you have BXO and you want it gone. You'd do almost anything to get rid of it. This often means spending money on yet another miracle cure. I didn't want to be 'yet another miracle cure'. The gu

Update on final cleanup

I've not been particularly diligent at using treatments these past few months. Apart from the occasional use of Tea Tree Oil, I haven't really been using anything. That being said, I am still noticing extremely but steady improvement on my glans. the place where I still have the worst covering of white BXO skin is on the base of the glans, where urine naturally gravitates toward after dribbling. This was probably the thickest covering all along. Measuring the progress of this late recovery is challenging. To measure how much white skin I have requires a reasonable amount of blood flow to my glans. Without that, there's little contrast between the different areas. But Tea Tree Oil tends to promote blood flow anyway, so it gives the impression that progress is happening faster than it perhaps is. I am trying to not to fixate over progress too much, and just focus on the basics - after urination, dry, dry, then dry some more. Even then, I will occasionally check to make su
