Guest guest Posted May 21, 2002 Report Share Posted May 21, 2002 For those in the UK, I worked in the city for a few years and my rosacea was terrible. I'm not sure if it was the pollution, heat or stress that caused it to be a constant flare. Unfortunately I am going to have to move back and am so worried about about the consequences (for the first time in five years since being in the country my skin has had days of looking normal). Does anyone live in the smoke and if so are they able to manage the big R? --------------------------------- Sign up to watch the FIFA World Cup video highlights from your desk! http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/fc/en Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2002 Report Share Posted May 21, 2002 I first had symptoms, at least that I paid attention to, after I moved to Houston. I'm not sure if that was causal or merely temporal, but Houston has the worst air quality in the US. People in LA may dispute that honor, but I'm not sure why - ha ha. Just think about this - at least it's not regularly 90-100 degress, with 80%-90% humidity, in London! For many reasons I'd like to get back to God's country. I hope that for a pleasant, unexepected side-effect of better skin when I finally do. Good luck in London! > For those in the UK, I worked in the city for a few years and my rosacea was terrible.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 I would think London would be a good place for rosacea because of its low sun intesity.
