Greetings. Feeling anxious is not going to be of any help and you may have been rightly advised by your treating doctors. However, with respect to the photos you have sent, it doesn't appear to be vitiligo.  This kind of pigmentary changes may be related to use of body spray or sun exposure . For further queries or issues please see a qualified dermatologist near you for confirmation. Warm regards
