Guest guest Posted February 14, 2002 Report Share Posted February 14, 2002 I was diagnosed with rosacea in october. I was treated with Doxycycline and Metrocream. My face is finaly better. Some flushinf but no more breakouts. My problem is my lips and the area around them. My lips are peeling. After eating my lips and the area around then burn severely and I have a red ring around my mouth. Is this part of the rosacea or do I have some other problem to deal with? Help!

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2002 Report Share Posted March 13, 2002 Kent, I took your advice and purchased the Health from the Sun EFA's and the pure emu oil. Within four days of taking the EFA's I could tell a difference in my hands. I've been taking them for about 1 1/2 weeks. I purchased the capsules; you are supposed to take three a day. Some days, I forget and only take two. But I could still tell a difference in my hands very quickly. They are not as soft as I would like, but I would have to say they are 80% improved. Also, yesterday, a coworker asked if I had lost weight; I took that as an added benefit of the EFA's. Thanks again for the good advice. --- kentportman Kent_Portman@...> wrote: > - > > Has anyone else had this severe cracking of the > lips (so much > so if I smile they split - ouch! sorry to be graphic > but it's the truth) > > > > I had very a very similar problem on not just my > lips, but also my > hands. > > ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS.
