Day 21

today i've finished up my second month of spiro, and i'm seeing my derm tomorrow. i definitely have more clogged pores around my mouth/chin, but they seem smaller somehow...like they're come up above the surface so you can see them better, but they're smaller. i still have clogged pores on my forehead, and honestly i'm not sure if those are doing anything different. on the plus side, i don't have any inflamed acne at this point (knock on wood!) i think the spiro really helps with that. but these clogged pores make me crazy. i think my derm will probably tel me to up the spiro dosage since i'm still oily/breaking out, or bump up to a higher concentration of retin-a. i'm curious about what he says...probably he'll laugh at me for making this appointment since when i go in there i might not have any inflamed acne. but i'm paying for all this medication. i should be happy and confident about my skin!
