Re: Rosacea - daily skincare

I am not a medical professional but I do suffer from rosacea. I cannot use any proprietary brands of cleansers, even those devised for people with rosacea. The only product I can use is Borage and Calendula Balm. It can be used as a moisturiser and cleanser and is made by Kate Logan Beauty. She is a...

Re: Pain medication

I have a question rather than a reply but don't know how to post it! I may need a steroid injection/s for lower back pain and am concerned that this may exacerbate my ME symptoms particularly as I am frequently feverish and suffer from rosacea flushing. I have had ME for 20+ years.
