Can’t believe I’ve been on Roac for 3 months now! It’s amazing how fast it’s flown 
Went to see the derm today. I think she’s a bit rubbish to be honest. She never even looks at my skin properly, all she does is ask me how it’s going and jots some stuff down in my file. Then she goes “you’ve just got to keep at it” or “stick it out” etc and I never really get any proper feedback from her. She said I’ll probably be on it for another couple of months as I started my treatment on a low dose of 20mg for the first 2 weeks.
So I’m hoping when I go back at 16 weeks, she’ll only prescribe me one more month on the shizzle! Woooh! We can only hope.
I’m desperately hoping to see a drastic change in my skin over the month. I only have about 5/6 active spots but my cheeks are covered in red marks/scarring which seem to be taking weeks to go away. This time last month when I washed my face it didn’t even feel like it was my face that I’m washing because there were THAT many spots. It’s much better now but I still look a bit dodge without makeup =/
In terms of the emotional side of things, the past 10 days is probably the best I’ve been feeling in about a month. I think it was a mixture of seeing no improvement in my face (the spots were getting worse not better), stress from uni work, and the fact that roac kind of coddles with your brain which sent me off the rails ever so slightly…But this past week I’ve felt great.
Ooh, I also went into a health shop because I have felt EXHAUSTED over the past three weeks. I basically reeled off a list of the symptoms that I was suffering and she suggested I take a mixture of vitamin B complex and Siberian Ginseng. I’ve been taking it religiously and I’m not sure if me feeling better is a coincidence but we shall have to see!
I’d love to hear from anyone else is round about the 3 month mark by the way! Xx
