feeling down

[Guest guest]

hello, i am 34. i live in australia and am feeling so depressed

about my rosacea. it has really flared badly this winter. i have

had redness on my nose and cheeks for years though now it is so much

worse. make-up is not covering it and my nose and cheeks are so red

and painful. the flushing is on my face is very severe and painful.

i even have redness and burning on my hands. i dont know what to

do. the dermatologist says nothing can be done. tried accutane,

have been taking antibiotics for 12 months. these past months have

made me withdraw. i left my job because it is very embarrasing. has

any-one got any suggestions about the redness on my nose and the

flushing? i am new to this group and would be grateful for

suggestions.

thanks
