Guest guest Posted January 7, 2001 Report Share Posted January 7, 2001 , I also have problems with facial swelling. Dr. Sy was kind enough to put together a regime for me that reduced the swelling considerably. It really works for me. The swelling comes back when I don't take the items she mentions for a few days. I've attached a link in which Dr. Sy describes the regime in detail. /message/rosacea-support/2880 Hope that helps!
