Im the one on the right, as you probably could have guessed. :-) I made it through college, though working full time aint easy. I'm a subtype 1, with moderate flushing on the cheeks and extreme flushing on the ears. Oh yes, and Im 22 and getting married in 50 days. Although it should be a joyous occasion, I am fearing what my face will be like on that big day! AAaa! I just want to enjoy the day...

Hi mate,

You look fine there.... I'm just a shade redder then you, but like you I have uni presentation in two weeks.... To be honest I'm really not looing forward to it... I mean, I dont even want to go and get my suit.....

I thinking of ways to get out of it, but I know I can't. I mean, we spent all tho's times in the lecture halls and classrooms sweating and burning... sheesh... Not looking forward to it, its also at 10:30 in the morning, so its too early to have a drink !! lolol

Take it easy mate

I think you look completely normal... :shock:

Well, I may look okay, but my flushing is pretty extreme. I have had to abolish all my exercise, except a brief jog every evening. I jog for 30 minutes but it takes another 30 minutes before my super flushed red face will subside.

I have given up basketball, golf, ultimate frisbee, lifting weights, and football. These are all things I used to do and loved them. That's been a huge sacrifice.

Hi btb,

Wow you even had to give up golf? And you look great by the way, best wishes on your wedding!

Well, I havent golfed in 2 years.. I of course can, and want to, but being in the sun that long is horrible for my face. Course, now that I've found a reasonably good sunscreen, I could try it again, but even with sunscreen, my face doesn't react well for very long in the sun.

Dude,

FFS you look normal as hell.

I aint kidding either. I think you have the classic case of thinking your worse than you are.

There's a medical term for it.

Enjoy ur day bro and I hope it all goes well for ya!

p.s for the wedding photo's u can get em edited.

Well, thanks for the comments. The picture there shows a minor flush... If I were to snap a picture of my face or ears after sun exposure, your jaw would probably drop. My ears turn purple and burn. Literally. Purple.
