Jane, I think that's a wise warning. I have no information on the

safety or efficacy of traditional chinese medicine (TCM) and rosacea

specifically, but from what I understand, even more than western

medicine, competent TCM relys on a physical exam and one-on-one

interaction with a practitioner.
