Re: suggestion needed: flushing all the time

[Guest guest]

Hi Jane,

Can't give you a definite answer, but since stopping with steroids

on my face, its has been getting better... just hope it keeps that

way!! I used to use hydrocortisone 1%.

But it seems to be an uphill and downhill adventure, I use Noritate

and the brown rosacea III-ltd disk, to control flaring and seems to

work. Keeps my face a nice light pink most of the time.

I also use B5, EsterC, GSE, flax seed oil, claritin, and lots of water.

Good luck!

In my case, it seems to help though of course, it doesn't stop me from

flushing. But it reduces is a lot and sometimes shortens the time it

would stay if I don't drink water.

We are all differnt, aren't we?

Re: suggestion needed: flushing all the time

I found out that cold water and ice made my symptom worse. I am

better now after I elimated all the ice.
