I think my rosacea has finally calmed down.
This is the skin care regimen That is working:
AM:
Wash face with exfoliating seaweed/coffee/charcoal soap
Apply mad hippie vit c serum
apply concealer and eye liner and lipstick
apply regenerist moisturizer to fore head and temples,

the dry skin area avoiding t zone.



PM:
Take off make up with benzol peroxide cleaner on make up areas (tzone)

use vasoline for eye liner removal

wash all of face with the soap.

apply moisturizer to dry areas.
finally apply thin layer of benzoperoxide to nose and other acne areas.

Thumbs up

That's good, Bizi.
-=-=-=

Mine is even manifesting on the skin inside my ears -- rough patches
of skin. So annoying.



I canceled the follow-up appointment because getting lost
in the parking garage was too traumatic to repeat.

Wow that's a lot of work, Bizi. And that's great self-care!

Mari, I'm sorry it's too hard to go back to the dermatologist. Have you tried anything OTC for the rough patches on your ears yet?

Kay,


I haven't tried his cream.

It's too much work and I am not hopeful.
I cry a lot.

That is okay, Mari

I would much rather you give up on treating little rough patches on your ears so that you have more energy to put into the other things you need to do everyday

I can't imagine how much you are suffering right now, and I'm sorry that you are crying so often (((HUGS)))

When is the last time you saw your pdoc? I know that you aren't trying any new meds, but is she helpful at all?

Kay,


I last saw pdoc April 12.


I did not tell her but I've been reducing my Klonopin a little.

I want to have extras.

It's also possible that Klonopin is making my
mood worse -- I HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW.

I can understand why you would want extra Klonopin after the issues you had with your last refill, and it is comforting to know you will have some extras there if you need them

I think that Klonopin could be contributing to your low mood, but you are right, you will probably never know for sure if it is. If you need it, obviously take it tho if you take it PRN?. There's no need to suffer if the benefits outweigh the risks at the time

I wish your pdoc could do more for you. I don't think hiding the fact that you're taking a little less Klonopin would hinder that in any way

I started lowering the dose when I saw that I was running low and the
pdoc's office was being difficult.

Worse: when the script finally got straightened out the pharmacy said that they
had ORDERED
it and would have it for me when it came in. ! ! !


(They did not have it in stock????)

Kay,


This is what the dosing says on the bottle:

Clonazepam 1 mg tablet

Take 1/2 tablet twice a day and 1 to 2 tablets at bedtime.
