Accepted Answer

Might not work: The common redness rashes on the face are rosacea and eczema. Topical antibiotic alone works for rosacea but not the one with topical steroid. Eczema might just need topical steroid but Betamethasone is too strong for the thin skin in the face. Also, there are many other skin diseases that looks red too. Since you get prescriptions for those meds, you should see your doctor for correct diagnosis.

Accepted Answer

Lupus still likely: I am sorry that you have these troublesome signs and symptoms of lupus with likely sjogren's. There is a saying among pathologists that a three-legged dog is still a dog, and that a wise physician focuses on the patient rather than the numbers. The sed rate is the easiest of all lab tests to do wrong, and i've never set much by CRP for anything. Hoping you & your rheumatologist find what works bst.
