Re: Anyone have rosacea?
Well, this is just a recent thing. I noticed it after the Billy Joel concert. I was overheated and my cheeks were NEON pink like I have never seen before.
After closer inspection over the next few weeks, I noticed little bumps on the apples of my cheeks, and that area was much redder than it ever had been. My brother gets this too, and was told it was rosacea, although his acts up when he eats certain foods.
I also believe I have psoriasis, just on my elbow right now, but my dad has it, my brother has it, and it can be hereditary. So, I'm wondering if the two might be related.

I have rosacea. I use topical treatments twice a day and try to avoid the trigger foods that cause the redness to appear or worsen.
