Heeeyyy everyone! =)First of all, can I just say what a big difference a few weeks makes? It wasn’t too long ago that I was complaining about the spots and all the terrible side effects. However, the last two weeks have been absolutely wonderful. I wake up with smooth skin… and go to bed without thinking I’m going to come out in another spot. Those worries I have just completely forgotten about now, and all seems like a thing of the past.
I think in the last two weeks, I have had a little teeny tiny spot on my chin, which kind of just disappeared within a day or two. I still have my scars but they are also beginning to fade. I’m using vitamin E oil on them and it really seems to help.
Also, I had my appointment with the dermo and she told me that my cholesterol levels have returned to normal,first time since starting the medication .. soo YAY!
Because of this she has put my dose up to 40mg now.
My lips are also getting a bit less dry now, I don’t know how… because I thought that they would get drier because of the increased dose… but hey I’m not complaining.
On the other hand, my skin is terribly dry in the mornings and especially when I come out the shower. I feels sooo tight and I have to slap on as much E45 as I can find.
One last thing I wanted to mention was the lack of energy. I don’t know if it’s just me or if its because of the roaccutane, but whatever the reason I have been feeling absolutely knackered this week, with some muscle pain. I think I will take it easy this week as I have some time off work. Hopefully i will be good as new…. with good skin Hehe!! =P
Hope you all are well xx
