My doctor said I have rosacea. I am taking meds for that, along with my plaquinil, and a face cream. The "acne" will not go away. I get HUGE red bumps that never get white heads, and last for weeks on end. Sometimes they are very painful.

I have been diagnosed with eye rosecea. It's getting worse. I'm loosing my eyelashes and have peeling skin.

I have Rosacea, along with the fact that I also fought the cystic acne for over a year and finally had to do the round of accutane because it was so bad and the accutane worked for my acne but seemed to make the lupus effects on my skin worse. It was worth it in the long run!
