Hey everyone, My back has improved drastically in the past year. I’ve only had one blemish show up in the last three months since taking my last dose of Absorica (Accutane). I do have discolorations, but they are slowly fading. It feels so good to finally have clear skin, and I honestly do not think […]
I’m so happy to say that I am almost all the way done with Accutane. I stopped taking the pills November 28th, so technically, the drug is still hanging around in my blood for about another week. I have my very last blood test tomorrow and I am SO excited that I’ll be done with […]
I wish I could have updated this blog more often through my Accutane journey, but with craziness of life and other things, it’s been hard to find time for it. However, I finally took some new pictures and will tell you all how I’ve been doing. I am still taking Absorica, but this month will […]
I haven’t written on here in a while because life was getting super crazy at the time, and also because I was feeling a little disheartened by not seeing a lot of progress and I was tired of taking weekly pictures. However, I am now in month 5 of my Accutane journey and I think […]
Another week on Accutane. I’ve had a lot of dryness on my hands that doesn’t seem to want to go away easy. I have a prescription cream from my dermatologist that I use at morning and night and when I remember, I moisturize with CeraVe Moisturizing Cream. I feel like my biggest problems right now […]
Ughhhh. Late again. I’ve been feeling very fatigued and between that, being busy and just having general craziness in life, this blog hasn’t been a huge priority. The biggest grief I’ve had this week has been the stupid cold sore I got last week and tried vehemently to get it to go away. I put […]
For anyone who might follow this blog, sorry that I’m a day late on this update. Life has been more than crazy lately. I’ve had a lot of stress in my family with my father who suffers from Rheumatoid Arthritis and also, lately, a very good friend of mine was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia […]
I’ve officially broken into month three! I had my dermatologist appointment earlier this week and according to him, I am through the worst of my acne and from this point on, my skin should start to smooth out. The pictures really aren’t that great this week, but I think I am seeing some improvement on […]
Hello people out there! Not really that much to update this week. I get my blood work done tomorrow morning and I am not looking forward to it, but hopefully it will go better this time than last month. The eczema that I had about a week and a half ago is so much better […]
The skin on my arms freaked out like crazy this past week. I started out getting these small, red bumps on my hands and then it eventually went up my arms. I assume it was eczema from the Accutane. I called my doctor’s office and they prescribed me a cream and recommended that I get […]
