Well a lot has happened in the past few weeks.
The last diary report I was having horrendous side effects, I had my one month check up with the Derm and she took one look at me and told I was to come off Roac immediately as I was having a severe reaction.
Also with going on Holiday the next day to Italy she didnt want me taking it and suffering abroad.
I was sent off with antibiotics again, a prescription for Roacc to start taking again in 3 weeks time and cream for eczema that I had developed all over my arms literally overnight.
I spent a total of 20 mins in the sun with factor 35 and then spent two days in pain with small blisters all over my chest area! SO PLEASE DO TAKE NOTE THAT ROACC DOES MAKE YOU VERY SENSITIVE TO SUN! I used to go brown now I just blister and peel!
So within 1 week of coming off Roacc my lips calmed down and were so smooth and not sore cracked and bleeding, my head/scalp/forehead stopped itching and peeling.
My dry patches on arms cleared up and I stopped having that ‘been out in the sun all day without protection’ glow to my face and chest and arms.
So I restarted on Roacc 3 weeks later but only one tablet not 3 a day.
I had no symptoms at all, no spots but my greasy face look re appeared and my pores opened up again.
I seen my derm a few weeks ago and she upped my dose to 2 tablets a day, plus the anti biotics at 6 a day.
So the state of my body now..
My lips are worse than last time, people keep asking me have I been in the sun! and i’m itching again. my nose is still red and swollen and I have to wear makeup to cover it so people dont think im an alcoholic!.I am moody to people when I don’t mean to be (normally an easy going girl) and my nose Im hoping the eczema stays away this time.
The positive side I havnt had a spot since May, my skin is getting dryer so my pores have closed again.
