Hi Group,
I am a newbie and have a question about flushing. Does everyone know why they
started flushing in the first place? My derm mentioned that my anti-depressant
which I had been taking for 12 years caused me to flush. I know it makes the
flushing worse so I am weaning from it. I also know over the years I have had
several flushing episodes but it didn't stay permanently until 4 months ago. I
had the trauma of going through 3 deaths and then had to go on a strong
antibiotic for an infection. That's when the flushing came and stayed. Does
the flushing from rosacea always stem from another serious illness? I am
confused and wondered if you guys could help me!
Thanks,
Jyl
