Shez, my spouse has Rosacea. Diagnosed about 10 years ago. First I noticed the redness and the small blood vessels that would come and go. She kept getting these massive acne looking pimples, they were huge! It took some nagging but she went to a dermatologist and got the diagnosis.

Triggers seem to be stress, excess sun and hot showers mostly. She used to use Metrogel and take doxycycline until it got so expensive. She's not taking anything right now and is doing pretty good. Very few flare ups.
