DAY 15 LOOK ALOT WORSE...OUCH

Post by tkr »

HI GUYS, WELL ON DAY 5 ABOUT STARTED BREAKING OUT A BIT, THEN BY DAY 10 LOOKED WORSE AND MY CHEEKS ARE REDDER, VERY DRY, TO ME I LOOK TERRIBLE YESTERDAY AND TODAY A LITTLE WORSE. I DEAL WITH THE PUBLIC, SO ITS NO GOOD. I JUST REALLY HOPE THIS IS THE ANSWER. SO TODAY I AM VERY DRY, BROKEN OUT, MY CHEEKS LOOK REDDER, AND BLOTCHY! I HOPE THIS IS JUST THE PROCESS AND I AM NOT REACTING TO THE SULPHER, I AM JUST WORRIED ABOUT HOW MY CHEEKS LOOK WHERE I HAVE THE ROSACEA. I ONLY USE THE Z CREAM AT NIGHT AND PUT A LITTLE ON. HOPEFULLY ITS THE MITES BEING RUN OF THE ROAD, AND NOTHING ELSE. JUST WORRIED I WILL LOOK LIKE THE DEVIL AND NOT LOOK BETTER. BYE 4 NOW KEEP YOU POSTED. TAMARA :shock:

Hey Tamara, when I first started using ZZ, I looked like I had chicken pox for about 3 weeks, seriously, I had so many spots :shock: My husband took a picture and my doctor couldn't believe it! But, I stuck with it, and gradually the breakouts got less and less, until now, when I only get one or two spots every couple of weeks, and they go overnight. The redness and dryness will improve a lot as the treatment progresses. Your skin will become used to the cream, and as it heals, will become much more resilient in general.

tamara, hang in there, the worst part is almost over. the first 4-6 weeks is hard but f mites are your problem it will get better. Did you have acne or rosacea with acne? How long did you suffer before this treatment? If it was a long time then you have to expect the recovery to take awhile.I will pray for you. Eat well, take vitamins, I take 1,500 mgs of evening primrose oil for extra skin support, its one of the best for skin and B vitamins for the stress of this. hawaiigirl

HAWAIIGIRL thanks, i am type 2 rosacea(rosacea with papules)...its mainly on my cheeks and some redness on my nose. The breakout period is so frustrating, i have thanksgiving next weekend, even though i am here for the long hall, i guess i was not expecting it to last so long, but realistically my rosacea is a milder case, mainly on my cheeks, so i will tough it out....i have to ive come so far. I am just tired of ruined weekends and so on...you all know what i mean. Hilda, steve, walter, marla, and so on...there is a great support network here thats for sure. bye for now. tamara

O.k its my time to report again. I am no longer breaking out, no longer itchy, my eyes are better 100% no longer itchy and bothersome as they use to be, my ears no longer act up 100% better, my cheeks are the dryest because that is where the rosacea is mainly, still dry(a good sighn though mainly dry where the rosacea is and new layers of skin old sloughing off), but I do believe over time this will be better. I am able to use moisturiser now, never use to, because my skin would always react and get oily and break out. I am very happy so far despite the weird journey, this is the best treatment I have ever used. My cat sleeps on the floor now hahaa lol just kidding he is my baby! I always wash everything thoroughly and eat and drink healthy, take my acidopholus nightly, and my vit b as recommended on here. I stll have mild red cheeks so hope this goes away with time and i will be better. tamara
