Day 3 - My Accutane treatment for Acne
March 30th, 2008
It has surprised me how quickly this drug gets going. I have had a dull headache, nausea and my husband commented on the fact that my chin area looked a darker colour to the rest of my face!I took my 40mg Accutane dose at lunch time again as it was going to be my largest meal and contained protein, good for absorption so I’m told.
As for the overall state of my face today, it is still in a clear phase, my chin is a bit sore under the skin so may have something on the way there. My cheeks have become a bit red and overall my skin is getting drier.
I am still so thirsty and my lips are feeling dry, I can’t let the Vaseline, Carmex, Eight hour cream basically whatever is to hand, wear off!
My face looks allot clearer in this photo than it does really, as I said I am having a bit of a clear phase. The combination of the Isotrexin gel and Yasmin contraceptive pill have helped to settle my skin.
