interactions with sun or exercise (maybe sweat?)

Since being on met, when I'm out in the sun and exercising hard (well, not that hard) for example shooting hoops or playing soccer, my face gets super super blotchy kind of yellow and red. Before met I used to get a red face but this is way way worse. I look absolutely terrible. I don't think it's the sun because I've been at the beach and been fine. Anyone have any kind of reaction like this? It could also been a number of vitamins i'm taking (prenatal multi, b complex, flaxseed, chromium, selenium, calcium, multi-oil (eg. omegas) and I think that's it. I'm worried that this could be an indication of something more serious. Anyone?

I've always had a bit of a red face. However, after going on Met (& a number of other things) it seemed to be getting worse. I also sweat much easier than I used to. I do have other medications that I take that make me more succeptible to the sun. However, when I went to see my doctor, I was told that it's a combination of sebborhea & rosacea. I have creams that I use now & it's improved a lot.
