Question Hello all - newbie from PA

Hello all..... I have just recently been diagnosed by a derm and found this site. I had never even heard of it before yesterday and I can tell you are all going to be a wonderful asset in my search for treatment. I'm 46 and have just recently experienced "da bumps". I now have them on my torso, legs and arms. My derm diagnosed my face flush as rosecea - but now I'm wondering if its part of the KP? I've never had the bumps that scab on my face but get severe blushing on my nose and cheeks and occasional bumps which has seemed to get worse since the KP arrived. My derm suggested lotions - Carmol-20; Ultra-Mide 25 or Amlactin... but of course I couldn't find any of them at the pharmacy or Walmart. That being said I don't even know where to start. My derm got side-tracked with a basel-cell that needed tending so I'm kinda on hold until I figure out what I'm doing. Any help would be appreicated! Thanks!
