I am testing out a new product. Now that spring has sprung (even in icy Minnesota) I have to use a sunscreen moisturizer. I selected Cetaphil spf 30 oil control moisturizer for acne prone skin. See below. Other than the addition of a new moisturizer no big changes to my regimen. Unfortunately my experiment with reducing my dosage of amoxicillin has failed...

Ok, so previously I have blogged about taking ridiculous amounts of amoxicillin and cephalexin. 12-14 pills per day. This month I started taking the prescribed dose exclusively; which is 3 500mg pills per day. The good news is that I have not gotten any new blemishes. My skin is still perfectly clear aside from a few unfortunate scars. I made the mistake...

Spring is finally here in Minnesota. The last of the snow is melting as we speak. I have to make a very important purchase. I need to buy moisturizer with spf. I am thinking neutrogena. I am open to suggestions. My skin is still acne free. I am still o.d.ing on amoxicillin. Benzaclin, check. tretinoin, check. clindamycin check. since I use tretinoin, I ge...

I have been so inspired by all the bloggers this week. Today I am so happy because I got my amoxicillin AND my benzaclin (generic of course). Right now I have zero pimples for the sixth month straight. My regimen is as follows: 1. Take three amoxicillin 500mg strength pills. 7:00am2. Wash face with hibiclens antiseptic soap. Kills P. Acnes on contact...

I have nothing really new to say. My skin is still clear and I am still using the same prescribed medications to successfully control my acne. I just want to caution everyone away from unproven treatments. I recently read a post promoting urine therapy and someone else whose complexion was devestated by going "caveman" (no washing or exfoliating of the fa...

Hello fellow acne haters:As some of you who follow my blog know, I recently embarked on a new journey. I decided to stop the antibiotic overkill. I promised, 1 month ago, that I would take my antibiotics only as prescribed. I went from taking 14 500mg pills of Amoxicillin to a mere three. The results are posted below. All other aspects of my regimen have...

I am standing on a soap box as I write this blog entry. Having cured myself of cystic nodular acne I have wisdom to impart. First of all, finding a good dermatologist is crucial. Most doctors will prescribe whatever you suggest so do your homework. Ask friends and use this site-but you already know that. Second, take antibiotics. The gain outweighs possib...

as many of you know. I take massive doses of antibiotics. I am considering reducing the amount of medication I ingest daily to the normal amount. But, it is with fear and trepidation  . Today I have only taken   ten 500mg amoxicillins and cephalexins. My skin is still totally clear so I am carefully considering taking only three 500mg amoxicillin   per da...
