Guest guest Posted July 24, 2002 Report Share Posted July 24, 2002 Hello Everybody, I rejoined this list a couple of months ago and have not posted since I joined this time. I just want to share with you what I have done to stop the progression of my rosacea. I am sure that anyone that is familiar with the list, is also familiar with Dr. Sy's Zinc O cream. I have been using this cream for about a year and a half now (maybe longer), and my rosacea is very much under control. I use it twice a day, morning and evening. I use the tinted if we are going out for evening, and the regular all other times. My nose was to the point that I could see where the skin was getting thicker. It has not gotten any worse. I had tanglastasis before I started the ZincO, and I still have it, but it has not progressed. I know everyone can not use it, but for those of you who have not tried it, I would defiantly give it a shot. For me, it is the best thing I have ever used. From the very first day I used it, I could tell that my skin loved it. I don't use any other medications, and I have tried most of them. I am also a person that is allergic to almost everything that comes in contact with the skin. I use all anti allergenic soaps for my clothes and bedding. I use cetaphil soap for my face and body; so far, no reactions. I also take the following: 1. Ester-C 1000mg. 2. Folic Acid 800 mcg. 3 Citracal Plus with magnesium. 4. famotidine 20 mg twice daily. I don't know if any of these help with my rosacea, but they are good for my health. I am also thinking of adding the Kal-Vein defense, but haven't as of now. Well, now I would like to ask a question. Does anyone know of a good derm in northern California. I am in the central part and am considering having some kind of treatments done on my face (not for sure what). Take care..........Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
