If what you have is called vitiligo also known as leucoderma, I want to say I have the same problem. Some say there aren't any cures, and some say there are cures. I think you should get the opinions of several doctors. If they say it's not curable, move onto the next doctor. Try to not take no for an answer. If you find it too hard to keep going, remember that you're not the only one out there. Be proud of who you are!

Sadly this is an obsession the world over...You'll see the same ads, skin-bleaching creams/beauty bars in Latin American, African American, African, south Asian, Mediterannean, and Arab neighborhoods. The lighter, the brighter, the better seems to be the mentality amongst all minorities (including ethnic whites such as Greeks, Italians, and Spaniards who prize lighter skin as well). Of course not all groups put as much pressure as others and not all individuals buy into the same Eurocentric philosophy of beauty. Also keep in mind that even though light skin is prized in various cultures...there are also various different skintones. Some Indians, Arabs, Latinos, and Asians have very light skin naturally. Some people prefer to tan. For example in the US - all of sudden it's become cool to be unique or ethnic (to a certain extent). I'll give an example, some of my light-skinned Latin friends complain when they get pale in the winter and look forward to getting tanned in the summer to show off that aspect of their latin heritage. Same with Italians, most notably the many (not all) who use tanning beds to achieve tans year round. Keep in mind, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

If you are hesitant with your doctor's diagnosis you should seek another a second professional opinion.
There may be doctors online but with the actual face to face consultation and medical tests... it's really difficult to have conclusive findings.

you should describe what kind of spots it is like bumps, smooth, is it itching or anything- if it's flat and no redmarks it can be vitiligo (i have it) its a pigment disorder & anyone can get it (any age, race, gender) and there's no cure yet--look at the pic on here and compare it to ur marks http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitiligo
