Hi Jay - thanks for the comment! I'd heard of the eye dryness side effect - just didn't think it would take effect so soon! Though it's calmed down already since yesterday.
Day 2: woke up with 2 new active spots in my 'danger zone' = the sides of my nose and chin- as these are the most fertile breeding grounds for spots to grow roots. I meant to say that I'm also on Dianette - a birth control specifically designed to help with skin issues - which I've been on for the last 10 months or so and has majorly helped my skin. Spots that I do get now don't get very big and don't last as long - HOWEVER - this morning's additions are unlike the ones I've been used to lately. Redder, bigger and meaner. This spells trouble...
Aside from random spikes of eye tightness/dryness, my skin is still very oily (of course, only Day 2!) and a bit more broken out than usual (though this is most likely because of getting very little sleep last night). I'll be posting no makeup pictures hopefully by tomorrow.
Treatment:
Roaccutane: 20 mg over 6 months
Isotrexin at night
Cetaphil gentle cleanser
Aveeno moisturizer
Skin:
4 active spots (3 from yesterday went down)
skin very oily
1 cyst near my eye
lots of red/brown scarring
