Hey!  

So I've been on roaccutane for 17 days and probably should've made this earlier >_<

Anywayyy here's how it's been so far: 
Week One-
I got dry skin and lips very quickly 
End of Week One/ Week Two-
Extreme pain in ribs and back which continue throughout the week. 
One of my eyes swelled up but that got better after a few days
Oil from my face has definitely decreased/ gone
End of Week Two/ Week Three-
The pains come and go but it's not as bad anymore 
I'm started the dreaded PURGE and I've got a few spots come out:smileys_n_people_57:. A lot are hurty spots :smileys_n_people_64:

So Ramadhan has started and many people worry about being on accutane during Ramadhan. So I will try and keep you updated on anything that happens throughout ^_^

If you have any questions then don't hesistate to ask 

I was given 'Epiduo' before Roaccutane to stop acne coming out...  It kind of worked I guess:smileys_n_people_9: 
I was also given 'Dexeryl' moisturiser by my Dermatologist and that is my life saver! So defo ask for that if you can!!

Day One of Ramadhan

My skin was really dry this morning:smileys_n_people_24: It looked really odd but my trusty moisturiser soon fixed that! Ayyyyy
I was quite thirsty throughout the day but to be fair... I am fasting>_<>_< 
Wasn't too bad to be honest

When I opened my fast and drank water it actually made my lips drier idk why:smileys_n_people_24::smileys_n_people_57:

I have college tomorrow so we'll see if doing work and walking changes anything considering I was mainly sat down today hahahah

Day Two of Ramadan

This day was actually okay, although I felt a little more fatigued than usual... 
I had a nap and woke up to my WHOLE tongue bein dry and i couldn't produce spit hahaah i really freaked out!

Day Three

I woke up to huge spots on my face, I have never experienced acne like this before EVER! It's awful:smileys_n_people_44::smileys_n_people_44::smileys_n_people_44: 
I'm sooo tired and sleepy and so thirsty
My rib pains come and go
