Healing Rosacea - May 2008

My Rosacea

May 12th 2008 04:11

I am a long time sufferer of severe rosacea and created this blog to record my many battles, triumphs and failures in the never ending search to find a cure, or at the very least, a way to manage this disease so that I can get out there and enjoy life. Hopefully others may find inspiration from these posts. Everybody's rosacea is different. What works for me may not for you, what works for you may not for me. I started out with just the flushing but my condition progressed to extremely painful and itchy spots all over my face. I literally stayed inside the house for weeks at a time because my whole face was practically purple. It was hideous and embarrassing. Over the years I have tried many different products from oral antibiotics to topical antibiotics, from roaccutane to rosacea disks and many many more. I've recently just discovered natural healing (well, I've always believed, but could never put it into practice) and the purpose of this "journal" is to help myself and others with this debilitating disease find inspiration and hope to find other ways besides drugs to heal.

Healing Rosacea

I have found the most success so far with the pharmaceutical prescription drug Roaccutane. By far, this has cleared my face from acute severe to almost normal with only slight redness. I am so thankful for this drug, however it does have many side effects and as I come off the drug, symptoms do start to reappear, but slowly. I have also found by watching my diet more closely and eating healing foods, that I can stop and reverse the flare up. Since watching my diet I have managed to control flare ups quite significantly. I am in the middle of trying to control a flare up this very week and will be posting my results very soon on this blog.
