Thanks for your information about getting a referral! I am less than pleased with my GP and would love to change. The clinic where my wonderful pdoc and therapist are is also where my GP is. The way my insurance works is that I have to take all 3 together, or not at all. So I'm stuck with my sub-standard GP.

I suggest you tell your doctor you're concerned about your rosacea if you haven't told him yet. Here's a link to an article about rosacea and skin cancer:
How Skin Conditions Can Affect Skin Cancer Detection and Treatment - The Skin Cancer Foundation. What Dr. Sandwich said was scary. I imagine if you share some of that information, the GP will make a referral. If not, I like Artley Wilkins' idea about threatening to call your insurance company. Please keep us posted. You're in my prayers.
