[quote=Anonymous]I developed rosacea last fall - oddly enough, the first episode came on about a week after I had emergency pelvic surgery (no idea if something that happened during that episode could have triggered it?). Anyway, I just get red and warm/hot on my cheeks and nose - it almost tingles. So far no acne or anything but flushed and feeling uncomfortable where it's red. My GP prescribed metronidozole gel, but that just irritates my skin (and I presume this is more acne focused?). I also have blepharitis/ocular rosacea, which had developed about a year prior. (FWIW, also have Raynauds, almost the opposite problem there and am likely going through peri-menopause. Curious to hear from others - what kind of doc do you see for this and what has helped you manage it? Did it start off as just flushed and warm and get progressively worse?[/quote]
