Thank you Jerrylubas. This was a very convincing observation and it doesn't
appear that you have anything to gain other than the satisfaction of knowing
that you might be able to help some people. It would be wonderful if there was
some kind of research into this as it seems to make a whole lot of sense.
Perhaps you can write to the people that manufacture the equipment used for the
ETS procedure - or one of the key doctors that perform this procedure, ie.
people that have most to gain by it.
Hello, Mr. Barrows and/or Dr. Nase... Have either of you ever heard of
this used for Rosacea treatment? It would be interesting to know if this is
being explored and if this has promise.

In the meantime, Jerry, can you tell us more about this procedure:
1. Cost? Covered under insurance?
2. Actual procedure?
3. What one can expect afterwards? Healing time?
4. Were you ever actually diagnosed for Rosacea or just the excessive sweating?
5. For those of us without excessive sweating - wondering how to find a doctor
that would do it for R?
6. Did your doctor know at the time that this procedure could possibly help the
R also?

Thanks Jerry, in advance, for sharing info.

Subject: ROSACEA CAN BE CURED

The cure for rosacea exists. Dont be fulled by acupuncture or other
treatments. they are good for nothing. I went through hell because
of this condition. However, I was cured. The procedure is called
ETS - Endoscopic Thoracic Sympatectomy. I had this procedure done to
stop excessive sweating on my face. It cuts the sympathetic nerves
that send nervous signals to the skin on the face. Not only my
hyperhydrosis was cured - my rosacea is since then gone forever - or
at least has been gone till now.(I had ETS done 4 years ago - and
just guess - no red bulbous nose - no acne - no flare ups)Is this
called - "killing two birds with one stone" or not?)Of course - some
cosmetic adjustments are necessary to get rid of old enlarged veins -
e.g. laser treatment. I garantee you that, after ETS + laser
treatment your nose will have no different colour than the rest of
your face. You wont have to wake up each morning and be afraid to
look at the mirror. (Too good to be true? - NO) I strongly recomend
this procedure.I know how miserable are people with with this s...t
on their faces. I experienced this - and I want to help. However -
medical community is not interested in my observation - even though
I tried to get this message across. I guess pharma companies are
making lots of money selling uselles stuff. Just imagine 14 million
people with rosacea in america X price of the antibiotic oitment X
12 (number of months in the year) = nice revenue.
Peace for all my brothers and sisters with this condition - and go
get the cure ASAP
