The Outfield

Wow, almost 2 weeks down. It looks like you may not have an IB, but sometimes they do not occur to much later for some people. Sorry to hear about the back pains, that would be quite annoying. Howev...

Day 56: Visited the dermatologist today. She believes my face is looking much better and that I'm going to stay on 60mg as it should reach my targeted cumulative dosage. Told her about my lip situat...

That's good to hear you'll be bumped up to 40mg. But why do you think you'll get taken off of it? Also, my nose seems to be runnier as well. And it bleeds sometimes, but not the dripping kind of blo...

Hey esa! Hope things are going well for you. I agree about the Nivea - I accidentally just applied it rather than the aquaphor. Dang it. Betsy, that's promising. Please let me know if it continues t...

Thank you! I am having a good day. I went to a career fair to hand out some resumes in hopes to get an internship this Summer. It went very well and I felt so much more confident knowing I didn't ha...

Yay now my upper lip is peeling too. I should have knocked on wood when i wrote that it wasn't peeling -_-

Haha, exactly about the aquaphor. And I write on a sticky note between appointments what I should bring up next time I see her

Lol I'm about to scoop one of every lip treatment item off the shelf at the store and try it. But it would be great if the lips would get better over the course of the treatment. I will ask my derm ab...

Day 52: Things seem to be getting worse for some reason. Cons: - Over the past 2-3 days, my nose has seemed to constantly have blood in it when I've blown my nose. But it's not runny blood. - Li...

Hey, it's been pretty much the usual. Day 49: - Pimple on side of forehead gone. Another one popped up on my cheek but quickly went away. One appeared last night on my cheek, closer to my chin - f...

Mine was exactly at number 6... but I believe it was pretty squishy (it felt like it was filled with pus). So maybe ours was different.

I had a lump behind my ear, right on the crease where my ear meets my head. It turned out to be some sort of acne and took about a week or two to disappear.

Thank you! Is there a specific type of Eucerin lotion?

Great to hear about your experience. Question: Did the eczema on the back of your hand go away? I have (what I believe to be) eczema on the back of my hand as well, and I think a little on my elbow ...

Day 45: - Fortunately the pimple in the middle of my eyebrows has scabbed away and is now healing. Unfortunately, a new one popped up on the side of my forehead >.> - My scalp has been a bit ...

Wow, that is pretty weird actually. I think there is correlation between washing/wetting the hands too much and also not moisturizing them often enough that causes the rash. Mine went away when I w...

Darn the rash that was on my hands is back

Zit zit go away, Do not come again another day. kthxbye

Dude that sucks. My tip for the day: If your lips are really dry, don't go opening your mouth wide open quickly (ie to bite into food) - you may split open a wound in the corner where your lips meet...

Well that's great because I do have red scars, all but a couple are not indented. Thank you for telling me about this.

Never thought about flaking helping get rid of the scars. Is that true? If so, that's encouraging. What do you mean by hyperpigmentation? You mean scares due to acne or something else?

Neat to hear you're trying every other day with the shampoo! And yeah, in the beginning I was experiencing dryness all over my face. But for the past 2-3 weeks it has been mostly my mouth/chin/nose/...

Hey Betsy. I like the new name.. it's kinda dark and intersting Good to hear about bacitracin. Might use that if I need to. It seemed like my dermatologist was reluctant to prescribe me anything for...

Thanks Betsy I was moved up from 40mg to 60mg. But being moved up to a higher dosage depends on your weight. I'm a lightweight guy, so I wouldn't be surprised if I'm not bumped up again. But I thin...

Day 34: Guess it is about time for an update - My face has stayed relatively the same but slowly improved over the past several days. I am not getting new pimples very often. Just a couple new on...
