Hey everyone - I've finally reached 2 months!
My Derm told me by this time I could be seeing drastic results and
I really have. My face is basically clear right now and my red marks are really fading. BUT I'm having a major problem with
my neck. It broke out BAD this week. My chest and back are once again clear, I must have just had a miniature break out
last week.
First let me tell you about my Derm visit. When I first got there he sprayed my face with the nitrogen
stuff like always (does anyone else get this???) and asked me how I was feeling etc. Finally I asked him if he could give
me some of the Hydroquinone 4% that makes red marks heal fast and he told me NO! He said red marks heal themselves and I'll
just have to wait. Gee thanks for the help Doc. Anyways, I still didn't have to sign anything or take a pregnancy test or
anything, even with all the FDA fuss, so I guess I lucked out.
*For those of you who want to try Hydroquinone you
can get the 2% OTC, I actually want to try it if this Vita-K doesn't work for me.
Now I'll get back to my daily
regime. Once morning and then once night I : wash my face with Cetaphil, take 200IUs of Vitamin, 10mg/40mg of Accutane,
and apply that Vita-K stuff (in last weeks journal) but I only apply it to my face and then apply the Cleocin T to my neck,
since it is still breaking out and my face really isn't. I've pretty much stopped icing my face, not because it doesn't work
but because I'm lazy and don't have time freezing my face every morning and night, plus I have so many other things working
for the red marks I don't think I really need it right now. Ohhh and as you can see I'm not really using moisturizer - some
of you probably think I'm crazy I know - but my face is really not that dry at all. It's oilfree but not cracking or peeling
like I've heard from many other people.
No other side-effects although this week I worked out again and felt it
in my back the rest of the day...Ohh and I've felt a little moody but that can be attributed to a number of factors in my
life right now!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving for those in the USA and a happy day for those anywhere else! :)
