Hi everybody -new to the board

Hi all,just found this site .
My story is im 24,have had KPRF and KP since early teens (when i took notice of it) ,have been to various doctors & derms and none off them have diagnosed me with it.Until i started surfing the net for facial flushing etc did i put 2 and 2 togetherI've had have diagnosed myself! Red bumps on arms,legs,tighs,ass and red cheeks = KPRF ,i mean how hard is that doc?
I think ive got a severe dose off this fcuking disease cause ive never seen anyone with a red face as bad as me or legs as dotted (every hair follical pore thing on my legs is purple).
Its basically ruining my life and i guess alot of ye feel the same,i wouldnt mind the kp on its own but id give anything for a cure for RF!
Im taking clonidine at the moment for facial flushing and it works a bit,id advise ye to give it a try at least.It curtail the flushing a degree but it may also make you sleepy.
Lasers?............the only hope we have ?From what ive read this seems to be so.Ipl doesnt work for "our" type off redness?So anyone tried or heard off anyone who got results from various lasers.?
replies welcome
Thanks for reading this everyone
Ps sorry about the f word s!

KPRF & Lasers

I just started a new thread a few days ago that will follow the v-beam laser process as my son gets the treatments. So far the treatments do not seem to be working but it still is still early in the process.
