Tetracycline is out. According to Safe Fetus, tetracycline is positive for causing birth defects during pregnancy.IF it was life threatening to go off the medication, it is an acceptable risk, but because rosacea is hardly life threatening, I can’t risk it. I’m not intending to get pregnant, and NFP works great, but accidents happen regardless, AND it is excreted into my breastmilk.

Oh well… How does Marvin the Martian put it? “Back to the drawing board…”

I think I’ll still go to a doctor and ask about my other options… or just wait until I can afford the seabuck thorn, and perhaps some foundation to cover it up on my bad days.

Still… how disapointing!
