Week 8 - Breakout

Posted in Roaccutane Diaries

My skin is worse than it has been for the entire 2 months that I’ve been on roac. I seem to be getting a new spot everyday which never seemed to happen even before I went on roacc. Before roacc I would go through phases of bad skin followed by clear skin, but now it is just a barrage of new spots and they’re CONSTANT. I’ve been getting spots the whole time I’ve been on the roacc but over the last 2 weeks they just seem to have gotten a whole lot worser.

I just hope it gets its act together and starts to clear up soon. I’m kind of hoping it might just be because it’s my ‘time of the month’ shall we say lol, and that my hormones are all over the place right now.

 I’ve just had an appointment with my derm and she basically said I just need to see it through, and that I would be on the tablets for another 2 and a half to 3 months. I really don’t have much more to say! My mouth has started to crack in the corner which I’m gutted about because I thought after 2 months I might have gotten away without that happening. It’s so sore!!!

It’s pictures of Abi and Tess before and after which are keeping me going now……I hope you’re all having a better time than me at the moment.

hey :)

I just thought i’d recommend something for your cracked lips! (If you don’t have anything that is, lol.)

Mine were cracked at the corners and I was using the Avent Nipple Cream that people suggested but after 3 weeks this did nothing for me. So last week I bought some Blistex Relief Cream and I applied every hour just in the corners and my cracked lips were gone after 3 days :) It was such a relief as for 3 weeks I couldn’t eat properly or anything.
I’m still applying now just to make sure it doesn’t go back like that.

So yeah, I would definately recommend that before they get really bad :)

I feel for you! :-(

I dread to think what i’ll be like if the same happens to me further down the line.

It’s easy for me to say, but stick with it! as you’ve seen first hand, the proof is in the pudding with the likes of abi and tess’ pictures so it should only be a matter of time. It’s just a rough time you’re goin through at the moment but you’ll come out the other side, you know you will. Not to mention the ‘lady problems’…..

And at least you have this website! it’d be the end of a lot of people if we didn’t have this! i’d be going mental if i was on roac without readin some of the posts on here.
