My Roaccutane Journey

Hey, I've neglected my blog recently but I felt like absolute sh*t last week...

I decided to skip a day just to give my body a break & the next day felt back to myself, so went back on the roaccutane. Only been taking 20mg instead of 30 though because I'm trying to work my way back up gradually without feeling so down like I did last week.

I...

Ok, today I feel like sh*t! Emotionally & physically.

I have flu symptoms, but not to worried about that... But I feel sooooo low! I have absolutely no reason at all to feel the way I do but I feel like I just want to cry!

Has anyone else had this feeling? Does it go away or should I stop my course?

I don't have an appointment with...

So I had my night out on Saturday... 4 vodka & fresh orange was all I drank and I was fine, sober & no hangover the only thing I should mention is my bones have been aching since!

What I would like to know though is have any of you experienced crazy dreams on roaccutane? I had quite a scary one last night & when I googled it, it seems...

I don't have much to update but thought I'd put some pics up today.

My skin remains dry but nothing really bad, I went out on Friday without my lip balm & had to go to a chemist to buy some... They were driving me crazy! (Lesson learned)

I'm going out tonight for Halloween, still debating with myself whether to drink or not but...

Not much to report other than dry lips & dry face but I seem to have it under control (for now) with my moisturisers.

The bleeding gums have stopped (thank god!) & I went to my dentist who prescribed me a fancy toothpaste which coats your teeth in extra fluoride to prevent tooth decay due to dry mouths! I think this has helped my gums to be...

Has anyone suffered from bleeding gums while on roaccutane? I've never had this problem before and have very good teeth/dental hygiene so my only guess is it is the tablets that's causing it?

This is the only new update I have other than in the mornings my breakout looks terrible but by night it looks like its clearing up great!...

This is what I look like a week on, hoping there's no more of this IB to come!

Here are some pics of what I started with one week ago...

Don't feel to bad... Have broke out slightly but can already see those spots starting to dry up.
My face is bright red though, I look sunburned! Somebody please tell me this goes away lol.

My scalp is sooo itchy all the time though! The only other thing to complain about is the cramp I've had all day! Probably just jumping to...

Today I can feel my lips really starting to feel tight. When I came out a shower earlier the skin on my face was flaky too, not complaining though cause its definitely starting to work and I'm only on day 5

I'm going through the initial breakout stage, spots appearing in places I've never had them before and cysts on the back of my neck...
