Just a question for all who experience this syndrome. How come you don't see caucasin people in hot climates getting this? Like people in the middle east or Vegas, etc. I think this syndrome mostly relates to people with northern european blood, (I myself am norweigan/danish/polish) who originate from cold climates with pinkish/pale skin. It may just be an evolutionary flaw for us. Also, I've noticed the skin of most elderly people is pale (along with the wrinkles.) So maybe it will go away once I turn 70. Only 42 years to go! Has anyone been to the Scandavian countries and observed the people? Do they all have a tendency towards pinkish facial features? Just look at the Irish, don't many of them have red hair? I know I may be generalizing here, but I think it's worth further investigation and scientific study. I may need to move to Norway to find a date. It really IS that frustrating, as most of us know. We need to create a support group or something where we can be ourselves w/o worrying about the redness. Anyone know of any chatrooms?
strange you should mention the Northern European Blood. I was born and raised in England to English/Welsh parents. They don't have a problem with the ear heat thing, but I do and I've lived in Central Florida for 14 years now and am a brunette (lots of people think I'm of Irish decent?). You may have something worth looking at - the syndrome maybe something in the realms of Multi Sclerosis which is mainly found in people of Northern European decent - like you said - it could be in our genes?
well, Emma, I've never even approached Multiple sclerosis. isnt that a debilitating brain disease? Well, I honestly don't believe that our syndrome is related to ms since I've noticed the red ears for the last 25 years and I'm 28 now. I think that if it were ms, I would be paralyzed by now. But anyways this disease is real and it needs more study. I am a firm believer in the caucasin Northern European Blood theory. please send me an email and let me know what you think.
sorry for the misunderstanding Rudy, my explaination of a link to MS was not clear. What I meant was that maybe your theory of N.European blood was relevant as certain deseases/afflictions are more prevelent in certain societys (like MS being linked to Northern European Nations.)
I live in norway and I am norwegian, tough my father is from puerto rico (spanish descent) and my mother is partly italian, but I have some norwegian blood in mi. The last yaers I have been living in argentina, and when I came back to the cold norwegian winter two years ago, I started to get red and warm ears, but it only appears during the cold winter months, esp when the indoor climate is very dry and warm, due to heavy heating. As soon as the weather starts to get warm, it will dissepear. I therfore think the climate has something to do with this. Something that is very common among the scandinavian people during the winter is the red cheeks the very many get during the winter months. Almost every norwegian kid thats playing outside during the winter when they come inside they got red and warm faces and ears, And the norwegians themself are not fare as fair skinned as the british and irish, so here its just the climate.
