Hello Maciek,

Trust me, many can get complete clearance (but still have the
genetic pre-rosacea) that I received without ETS. In fact, I never
recommed ETS to 99.9% of anyone who asks.

For clarity, I had ETS performed for one reason -- one powerful
trigger that could not be overcome. I do tons of seminars, National
Meetings and International meetings where I have to stand up and
talk for 40 to 50 minutes and then answer questions from the
brightest in the field for another 10 to 20 minutes. That is the
only flush instigator that I could not really get to the bottom of.
One single, very specific, very strong neural response during
intense meetings in the spotlight for long periods of time.

So, obviously, most wont need to ever consider this. I hope this
adds clarity. This should have been added to the book, but I was so
busy just trying to get the darn thing out all by myself that it is
natural not to cover all the bases. You should wipe ETS from your
mind.

Regards,

Geoffrey
