Q: Acne and allergies

Last year I started dealing with Acne issues. The dermotologist gave me some pills that was suppose to clear things up and told me to use soaps like dove, and keep my face moist. Nothing has helped. I have tried many over the counter items as well. The bumps come up and they are very itchy and of course if I scratch they scar. They are on my face , my neck and on my chest. On my chest because of it itching so much it has scared terribly. I have always had nice smooth skin until now. It is not appealing at all and I desire some suggestions of the next steps to take. In work area I do know that there is mold and mildew though not noticable. That was discovered when I all of a sudden started having allergy issues in which now I too take medicine for. I have a concern that so many health issue are starting to occur. When I had my physical all blood work was excellent but it focus on cholestrol, diabetes and things of that sort. Are there test out there to take that could give solutions to issues mentioned above. Thanks for any help one can give.

Have you tested for hormones? My husband had really bad acne at age 18-19 that only hormone therapy helped. You might want to look into it.
