Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 Hi I am new to the posting part, but have been reading posts for a few months now. Thank you all for all the information you continue to give on cea. I am fortunate enough at this point to experience the flushing and burning,even though I do have the constant rash on my face. My pustules are less and less lately and even then very small and minor. First, I have been taking oil of oregano capsules for a few months. I started because I had a sinus infection, it cleared that up,as it did the strep my son had and the ear and upper respirtory infection my brother had. As for my rosacea I had never thought of a connection. My face has been better, but that is also, because I am learning what foods not to eat, and to keep cool. Second, about a month ago I started aloe vera. I bought cheap stuff at Trader Joes, it was not 100% pure, and it burned! So then I went to a Health food store and bout Aubrey organic's 100% pure aloe and that did not burn. It has to be refrigerated as it is pure and will go bad. When I run out I am going to just buy a plant and use that a lot cheaper and pure. I am tired of wasting money on products I can't use. So I am happy to have at least for now found a few things that work. I use the metrogel lightly, the aloe, then Evening Primrose (from Aubrey) lotion on my face 2-3 times a day. I drink ALOT of cold water, and have for years, avoid alcohol and about 75 different foods, and refined flours and sugars. I take a half of benedryl at night and I have been having less flares. I do flare fast when I exert myself and it is even just warm out. I look forward to reading more from all of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
