In reply to Medications for Facial Blushing - HELP!, posted by Zoehead on July 18, 2005, at 14:07:33
You mentioned that you experience social anxiety. Have you had a professional rule out the possibility that you do NOT blush more frequently than other people? I'm asking b/c due to your anxiety disorder it may be possible that you are just more concerned about this symptom than other folks would be. (I know it is certainly possible to struggle with the problem you describe and I'm not doubting you, just throwing out ideas.)
Also, is it possible that your current meds are making the problem worse? I know that my combo of meds makes me flush and sweat (not the same thing, but maybe related?)
Hope you get some helpful answers!
Best,
EE
