Have you seen a dermatologist? They might have a good idea of why you get them and why they are different and how you might be able to prevent them "bringing friends" (yikes!).

It does sound like it might be an auto immune response though. What about your vitamin levels...maybe this is a response to a deficiency?

Gross? I doubt it! Bet my nose and facial hairs could give your cysts a run for their money. I forgot to mention I now am getting so much hair on my neck that it's like a mane if I don't keep it trimmed. Oh, and I'm losing my eyebrows too. Go figure.
