Guest guest Posted March 10, 2002 Report Share Posted March 10, 2002 Group, Last summer, on this site, I " ran into " someone who lives in my small town. We had a bit of correspondence about rosacea, as she had just been diagnosed. It sounded to me like she was having an allergy to something. She said she experimented with eliminating various foods, etc. and finally found a sympathetic dermatologist who biopsied her red, swollen skin. It turns out she was allergic to three different medications she had been on for years (for something other than her skin). They had become toxic to her system. She looks great and is symptom free.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2002 Report Share Posted March 10, 2002 Hi Suzi, Do you know which medications had such an effect on this person? It would be good to know in case someone else here on the list might be having similar side effects from medication causing rosacea or rosacea-like symptoms and not being aware of the culprit(s). Thanks, Matija > Group, > > Last summer, on this site, I " ran into " someone who > lives in my small town.
