Yeah post some pictures! I did, managed to pluck up the courage. Im good at chem though, Im doing A Level and so far its not too bad but Im kicking myself, it would have been an easy exam had I revised so the one in june will be harder! NO!

No, I thought Id hate my "before" pics but now I look back and Im proud at how far I came, its only when you line them up like i did in order.

Argh i went swimming today. A word of warning to all those on tane; I finished about 2/3 months ago and my joints still really ache after strenuous exercise even now.

Got water in my ear and cant get it out, im really worried it will get infected.

Yes! The days are getting lighter earlier now and so Im a lot happier!



Have you been taking fish oil pills for your joints. That could help a lot.

Hey Nessa!

I was wondering if you could take a look at the pics in my log of the rash I have on the back of my hands. I seem to remember you mentioning that you got a rash on the back of your hands and I thought you could have a look and see if it's the same? Just to put my mind at ease...

Hope life is good. Ska ska ska!

Yep thats what I had. Are you in the UK? Sorry I cant remember. If you are, go to the docs or a pharmacy and buy Eumovate, its what I got prescribed. Try it and go back if it doesnt help. All it is is extreme dryness. Try to keep it moisturised but dry and out of the cold and wind.

Hmm theres a complication with the Less than Jake tickets, the ex and my mate have turned all weird and I cant decide whether to take them or my other mate and her b/f but then that would be "threes a crowd". Or to sell all 3 tickets. Any ideas?

Let me know what happens with the rash.

SO i went out to band night and it was crap, i got pics where you can see every single goddam red mark. im going to the docs to get some dalycin-t because i have a tonne of whiteheads just errupted. and i thought tane would cure me! Maybe theyre hormonal but i really dont want that again.

Bit of bad news with regards to my acne - I am now back on medication to treat a flareup which has lasted about three months; its just under 2 years since my treatment. I am on erythromycin tablets twice a day to try and control it - I had cystic acne all round my mouth again which was so upsetting since i had clear skin for so long!

will deff update with pics asap if I can get some taken, its all calming down now but just to warn people that I was told that accutane was a cure, and that I was telling mistruths when I said I knew two people with acne relapse. So here I am possibly going on roaccutane again!
