Posted in Roaccutane Diaries

Well….I wish I had something more interesting to report but it’s really just been more of the same. I’m still getting a headache every day which is by far the worst side effect im suffering with. Im still having nosebleeds every now and then and have got a few new spots. Also some dry patches have started to appear on the top of my arms - weird eh!For my dry lips im using Kamillosan (nipple cream), which is working really well. I’ve also got myself some of the Elizabeth Arden 8 hour face and lip cream!

One thing I should mention - is ive just changed my make up brand from Benefit to Bare Escentuals…and im loving it! The coverage is brilliant for my red scars and spots and it not aggravating my skin at all - whoohoo!!

I’m also being more careful with my tablets, as 2 mysteriously disappeared out of my packet last week!!!

Hope everyone has a good week - will report back soon!!

Hi Claire - a few people find on here have recommended drinking lots of water to ease headaches and dehydration.

Abi, I hope all these nipple cream manufacturers realise that their profits have shot up because of you ;)

Hi Claire

I’ve got dry patches of skin on the tops of both arms too. They were really itchy as well which was driving me crazy but i’ve putting E45 cream on when i wake up and before i go to bed and this is working for me.

Hope your headaches don’t continue for too much longer! : ) X
