There is also another cream for diaper rash and skin irritation called Acid

Mantle. It's been on the market for many years but is hard to find.

Privately owned pharmacies will order it for you. For those of you who

can't tolerate zinc oxide, this may work. This cream was recommended by Dr.

Schroeder (dermatologist) in Fishkill, N.Y. For those members in the

Mid-Hudson Valley, he is an excellent dermatologist. However, don't let him

sell you skin care products since they are too harsh for rosacea patients

unless you have tough skin.

Hi,

I was told by my derm. that ocular rosacea can develop after a person has

had (untreated) rosacea. He said that was the main reason to continue the

Doxycycline. I had an allergic reaction to Doxycycline last week after

having taken it off and on for 8 years! I go to the derm. again next

Thursday to (hopefully) find another medicine to take for my ocular rosacea.

I started out feeling slightly dizzy and nauseated within a couple of hours

of taking the Doxycycline. I thought I had a stomach " bug " , so kept taking

the med. On the third day of this, I took a dose as usual. Within an hour ,

I broke out in hives and started vomiting. I went to the Dr. who said I was

Thanks everyone for the support - I'll keep on with the uphill

battle!! Am now using Noritate and have been on Minocycline

for about a year - it really helps with the bumpiness, if not

with the flushing. I tried Metrogel - it was OK at first but

then didn't seem to be enough. The antibiotics don't seem to

help my eyes though.

I think I'll give the Desitin a try - I must have missed that

one when my kids were at the diaper stage!

Dear Priscilla,

Almost 50 is not ugh! I should know--I am 50 but still feel like I'm 30.

Hot flashes agravate my rosacea, too. I have been trying to find ways to reduce

them. So far, drinking LOTS of water, keeping a small battery-powered fan on

top of my computer (where I spend 8-10 hrs/day), deep breathing when I feel my

face heating up, and completely avoiding the sun, alcohol, and caffeine have

made a big difference in their frequency. I never thought I could give up these

things but when you accept having to completely alter your lifestyle, it really

is possible. I'm actually feeling healthier and more in control of things than

ever. My Dad had really severe rosacea and I have always dreaded getting it.

He never knew about food triggers, but at last count I have identified 27. I

am very fair-skinned and blush easily. I try to avoid situations that make me

blush, which means I have become something of a recluse. I use metrogel alone,

and so far have found it speeds up the development and disappearance of the

bumps. Doesn't help the redness, though. I can't believe how long it takes to

heal. I have oily skin so it doesn't dry it out much. I don't want to take

antibiotics either if I don't have to. I tried black cohosh for the hot

flashes, but it caused me to have a 2 month long non-stop period. No way!

Guess these herbs and meds affect everyone differently. I am convinced that the

cumulative effect of blushing somehow sets you up for rosacea. One good thing

about it (if you can call anything about it good) is that in avoiding your food

triggers, you usually have to give up the foods you're most likely to

overindulge in. I have lost 22 pounds since last September when this thing

began to kick in.

There are so many good ideas being presented in this forum. Some of them are

bound to work for nearly everyone. Good luck! Ann

Hi Priscilla!

YES there is a connection btwn. heat and red-hot rosacea cheeks! If I get too

close to a space heater or fireplace or if I skip my hormones and have a hot

flash my cheeks look like I'm ready to be head clown at the rodeo!

Subnewton,

I had allergy testing done for both normal allergies - dust, molds, that kind

of stuff - and for chemicals. With the chemical testing, I did get back a few

positives and it helped me. There was a website for a while on the net that

listed hundred of common chemicals, their other names and the kinds of

products you would expect them to be in. Boy, that was a wonderful website.

It closed though. Anyone have another one? It was worth it's weight in gold.

Anyway, I don't have much faith in testing for food allergies - too many false

positives and it's really easier to track them yourself. For chemicals, it

was helpful cause chemicals go under several different names - they are harder

to track. Once I had one name, I could find out the others and avoid my

allergy triggers easier.

I had the same problem you are having with getting off minocin. I kept

flaring. I finally took biaxin and, for the life of me - while I don't

understand why, it broke that pattern. I was on 500 mg. 2x a day for about 3

1/2 weeks.

I don't know if you are using an antihistamine yet, but they can help.

Hi Marji and Suzanne,

I have the blepharitis also, but haven't had to treat it since I found my

triggers for it. The worst for me is light (sunlight and fluorescent

lights-these lights are everywhere, thus my story about always wearing a big

straw hat) and chemical triggers (mine is the stuff that's on new clothes at

the store). I am fortunate enough currently to be staying home with my

children most of the time, so the flare-ups when I go shopping or sit under

fluorescent lights etc... are very obvious. If you work with (or under)

your triggers regularly, it may be very hard to identify them. Have you had

any success putting your finger on triggers? I wish you both luck in

treating this-it's so uncomfortable! BTW my derm said that fluor. lights

did NOT affect rosacea, but he was WRONG, WRONG, WRONG-nobody has all the

answers...so we're all working together. Looking forward to your

contributions-welcome!

Hi Kerry and everyone,

My eyes are getting worse and worse. Do you think a computer screen could have

an impact similar to florescent lights? I haven't been able to identify any

other triggers except for heat and sun.

Dear Beth--

I also started out with vbg and then had to be converted to rny due to

medical and post-op complications which almost cost me my life several times.

For the most part I have to say that I'm very happy with the rny--the failed

vbg prohibited me from eating solids at all--but I continue to lose weight

even though I shouldn't anymore. My questions to you are: was your vbg

unsuccessful due to lack of weight loss or excessive loss such as in my case?

And when did you finally reach your set point, the place where you stopped

losing altogether? I'm starting to get a bit concerned again, as are my

docs, because I eat and eat to the point of nausea, and barely can stabalize,

let alone re-gain any of the excess. I'm considered by all the pros to be at

least 13 pounds underweight (it varies from doc to doc). I'm also told that

I MUST eat more, though I simply cannot get in more than about 1200 cals/day,

no matter how hard I try. The past week or so I've been up and down within a

range of about 3-5 pounds and today am back down again. Urgh....it seems

like a real losing battle (pardon the pun!)

Thanks for joining the list. We look forward to hearing from you.

One thing that helps me with body pain is Ibuprofen. I take 2 tabs every

three to four hours. Some days it doesn't cut the pain but sometimes it

takes the edge off the pain so that I can tolerate it.

Stretching helps to loosen up. Exercise is great to stay limber and be able

to move more comfortably through the day.

I think if you start researching, you'll find a Lot of us out there. I've

been 'lurking' for a while but Understand your post Completely. The Internet

is a Great Library and easier then walking those steps.

<<The constant, searing, burning sensations... sometimes sleepless nights...

I got the 'Flu' Ten years ago and I'm still Waiting to 'Get Over It'. I feel

the pain 24/7 also, which contributes to More pain because I can't get

Restful Sleep which means that the Cycle goes on and on. I have 18 of 18

Tender points and I describe the Worst of it at the Bottom of my Spine: It's

like a softball filled with Burning Coal, the Fire Never goes out, sometimes

dims, But usually gets hotter and causes so much pain I just want to Cry.

The pain in my arms gets so bad that lifting a Glass is impossible and

Walking around the house is the best I can usually muster.

If I knew what I know now, :>), I would keep a Journal of my Illness. I

would list the things my brain wants to do (used to do) and list what I

actually do.

You may come to realize at some Point that you Can't work regardless of the

Bills and all, actually that you're Unable to work. I was 40 when I first

got sick and within a Months knew I couldn't. I had to take a Cut in Pay to

a fourth of my Income on Social Security. They don't care what the Name of a

Disease is, Only how if affects your Inability to Work 40 hours, 5 Days a

Week. The list DISINISSUES covers that if you think you'll have to go in

that direction.

It sounds like you're seeing a Rheumatologist if he diagnosed the tender

points. I was surprised that after Months of seeing 'All' those 'other' Docs

he could find 18 of 18 tender points and Let me Know it wasn't ALL in my

Head. I was depressed when he said 'I would have to live with it' and that

at 'Some' point I wouldn't get Worst, it would Level Off. I used to believe

him.

I had to 'Move' home to my Parents house because I couldn't handle everything

in my Apartment and for a few years I got rest when I needed and Didn't hurt

as much but 'Things Happened' and now I've gone back too " To Much Activity "

and consequently am suffering severely for it.

I know discribing FM is difficult so I just tell People it's Like have

Arthritis only in your Muscles but for me it's so much more.

Good luck at the Pain Clinic, I don't know what they do but Please let us

know, My Doctor 'Recommended' I go because of the Meds I take (Tylenol

w/Codiene #4 and Fiornal) just so I could function at the Basic level but I

was afraid they would take away my 'Crutches' that allow me to walk at all so

I haven't gone so far.

You have come to the right place, Keryn. We are here to help you.

I am 23 yo and there are days that I feel 100. I understand. This is a hard

illness and there are no quick fixes. It is a lot of trial and error with

meds and therapies. Massage therapy is said to help as is chiropractic work.

I have not tried them but hope to have massage therapy soon.

We are glad to have you here

[Guest guest]

You came to the right place. I know that you will love it here.

Where do you live?

My name is and I am 22yo. I live in Ontario, Canada with my husband

of almost two years and our dog.

I have CFS and Fibro. Along with that I also have a fainting disorder called

Orthostatic Intolerance.

We are glad you are here. Update us when you feel like it!
