What Other Conditions Did You Get After Getting Vitiligo?
I’m wondering what other conditions people got after being diagnosed with vitiligo. Or before for that matter. I’ve seen some discussions of psoriasis. What other conditions did you get? Did they come before or after the vitiligo?

Eric,
It’s been been said that 30% people with vitiligo have another auto Immune disease. Of that 30%, 20% is thyroid related.
I've had vitiligo since high school and now I'm 32 and diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, Hashimoto's and fibromyalgia. There seems to be glucose issue occurring as well. I've seen functional medicine doctors and realize I have some food intolerance, especially wheat. Trying to stay away from those food definitely helps. But it hasn't stopped the vitiligo from spreading. It has been stable for many years until the pandemic hit. I had 4 shots of vaccines and got Covid at least once, which I think play significant roles in the spreading. God seeing it spreading every day is such a torture. I don't think I will be loved anyone anymore
