Close Rosacea

Well good afternoon everyone, hope everyone is having a blessed day. This is actually my first journal written. Let me share my situation with you all. I am 33 years old, recently married 5 months now.I have been diagnosed with rosacea 3 years ago. I have had my ups and downs with this skin disease. I can begin to tell you I have been to so many dermatologists and they don't show concern for you, to them Rosacea is no big deal, it is very frustrating. My problem is not so much how you look but how it feels. I feel like I have been set on fire, I had to give up on so many things, I have a new diet, I no longer go to the beach, I can't cry without getting red and really hot on my face, I have to be extremely careful when washing my face because it is sensitive. It is very depressing for me at times, because I wish I can live my life with no worries or concerns and I can't, it is hard for me. I am still a newlywed and I know it is frustrating for my husband at times because he won't do anything in the sun unless I am there with him. I have a beautiful step daughter who is 9 years old and she has a heart of gold. When I have my flare ups she just has the right words to say, she is always praying for me, what a blessing she is. If anyone can give me some advice, I want to have children of my own and I am afraid to because I am not sure if this skin disease is hereditary and I have become so dependent on the antibiotics, I know when you are pregnant antibiotics are definitely out of the question and I don't want to have flare ups, I usually get them once a week or two weeks and the pills actually are the only thing that work for me. What do I do? How do I break away from my fear of flare ups and have a baby.

Doxycycline Working / Worked

If you take it without food it gives you nausea and dizziness. But it has been working for me I don't have flare ups but I do get red not severly though.
