Acne, blushing, varicose veins..please help.

Hello,

I am hoping that someone on this forum can help me with some chronic issues that I have. I'm 26, female and the problems I'm hoping to address are:

chronic acne-started with onset of menstruation (age 12). Mostly situated on my chin, some on cheeks, less so on forehead, a little on chest and back. Ususally are small pustules but some have a tendency to turn into large painful cysts which take weeks to heal.

cold hands and feet-very bothered by the cold, always have to bundle up, hands and feet icy cold even in summer.

blushing-blush often, even in low-stress situations. Get embarassed very easily.

varicose veins-have one large varicose vein on left leg, inner calf, just below the knee.

Painful period- pain comes on right when bleeding starts and is quite intense for about 2 days and then is okay. Period usually lasts about 4-5 days with bleeding heavier the first two days and much lighter the last 2-3.

Past health:
Few illnesses in childhood-chicken pox, colds flu. 4 years ago had a few bouts with strep throat, one which was followed by scarlet fever--course of antibiotics for each bout.
Took antibiotics for acne 2-3 times.
Was on birth control pill-various types off and on for about 6 years. Have now been completely off it for 4 years.

I have filled out the homeopathic questionnaire which I found on this forum and hope it will help.

Please let me know if there is anything other information that might help. I'm very tired of dealing with these issues (especially the acne) and hope someone can steer me in the right direction.

Thank you so much in advance.
