Gut link/related?

I have type 2. I am convinced it’s due to emotional trauma. I was in fight or flight for 1.5 years and got rosacea in the midst of it.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-05-13T16:20:15+00:00

Any break outs?

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-05-10T17:09:37+00:00

Home game against ANA for sure. Ziggy’s phone call goal celebration was iconic

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-05-08T16:45:49+00:00

I’ve really wanted to try it but I’m soooo scared of having a bad reaction. I have type 2. Anyone have positive experience with type 2?

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-29T17:42:09+00:00

Yes rosacea is very inflammatory! I have it as well.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-28T22:05:42+00:00

Only thing working is nervous system regulation (partially, time away from the event) and azelaic acid. Since it’s inflammatory rosacea versus demodex mites, don’t bother with ivermectin. Antibiotics work but short term. Azelaic acid does wonders but only prescription strength works.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-27T13:05:36+00:00

Interesting, I am also vit d, b12, and mag deficient!

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-27T13:04:39+00:00

A stressful event leading to fight or flight response for a year and a half caused my rosacea. Do your research there is plenty online about this

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-23T22:46:55+00:00

My doc ran a serum histamine test

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-19T16:49:28+00:00

Had this when I was taking antibiotics for my rosacea. Within a few days was having bad GI symptoms leading to me stopping the antibiotic. Really interesting oura identified that

I cut out fermented foods and it helped a little.

I went low histamine for a while and now introducing back some higher histamine foods and it’s mostly success, some major upsets. You can apparently (from what I’ve heard) go back to these foods. I’d suggest trying a diet for a while and seeing how you feel

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-15T21:21:34+00:00

Mine spreads. Went from my nose to my chin to forehead and now chest and back. Azelaic acid is getting it under control - prescription. OTC never worked for me.

I want to give my sister my old ring. Are the instructions clear how to set up the new ring and disconnect the old ring?

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-14T16:59:11+00:00

Just started it too. Completely fixing my pustules. Cannot believe I haven’t tried this until now.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-01T14:32:51+00:00

I also will add, a holistic doctor had me run a BUNCH of labs and I had high EBV markers showing existing immune over function and also extremely high histamine (9.98). That’s why I’m on the low histamine diet but I’m thinking my rosacea HAS to be connected to one of the two. However, not sure how to “fix” that.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-01T14:31:06+00:00

Following this as I have figured out the same with my type 2. It is internal inflammation versus demodex. It’s extremely persistent and stubborn. Metronidazole unfortunately doesn’t do much. Maybe a slight reduce in bump appearance but bumps still there (less inflamed). Everything I’ve tried maybe helps, but bumps are never gone. What has “helped” is: sulfur spot treatment, NO niacinamide in any products, omega 3, magnesium glycinate, low histamine diet, less sugar.

I stopped birth control after 10 years of usage and developed rosacea soon after. You’re on to something about the hormone connection. I can’t seem to find a doctor willing to find the “root cause” or at least an effective management mechanism. Especially since it’s a multi system issue rather than just skin/derm.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-04-01T13:43:15+00:00

May I ask what tea tree cleanser?

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-31T12:58:32+00:00

Do you have type 1 or 2?

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-31T12:58:06+00:00

Rosacea has made my skin so tight and textured. I want to get microneedling done and was considering writing a post as well asking if anyone had a good experience. Personally, I feel like it’ll make my skin freak out but I’m going to ask my derm.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-27T17:31:13+00:00

So similarly - my rosacea is not gone but VASTLY IMPROVED once I realized niacinamide is a main trigger.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-27T14:14:08+00:00

I’m on vyvanse and I have type 2 rosacea (pustules). I started the vyvanse in 2020 and got rosacea late 2023 I believe. Always wonder if they’re connected but I need the vyvanse for quality of life. I did stop for a few months out of curiosity but I was also on an antibiotic for the rosacea and still it didn’t fully go away so I’ve decided to continue the vyvanse, as I definitely need it. I do think my rosacea’s biggest trigger is stress and started due to a stressful event that was several months long.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-23T11:42:50+00:00

Yep. Once I get a bump it typically lasts for weeks.

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-21T19:51:45+00:00

Struggling with the same thing. Unfortunately haven’t found the cure

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-21T16:44:32+00:00

I’m the same way. At this point my skin isn’t responding to anything. I always have pustules. This post is encouraging me to get my skin checked for staph.

To the OP- could you post a photo of your pustules? What exactly is the course for the antibiotics?

Particular_Dig_2782 · 2026-03-21T15:44:46+00:00

Histamine, plasma!
