Hey, there have been some studies about the link between rosacea and disturbed gut bacteria (which is believed to make up a decent amount of IBS cases), I have gastro issues also and I've noticed more acne around my temples and forehead, nasty stuff. Hope it clears for us both!
I think there is meant to be a link between Rosacea and SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth). Might be worth seeing if you can be tested for this? I know that it's possible to get tested on the NHS, otherwise you can get a home testing kit for around £150.
Not what you're looking for?
