Doxycycline
Doxycycline has been irritating my stomach for quite awhile
now, I always feel like I want to throw up after I eat, it doesn’t matter if it’s
the meal that I took the food with, after every meal I feel nauseated. After my
dermatologist visit, I have decrease from taking it twice a day to only in the morning;
this has made me feel so much better. So far I think Tretinoin is doing its thing so
I haven’t gotten any huge pustules yet.
Tretinoin
I have increased the frequency of Tretinoin from every 4
days to every 2 days following up with Cerave moisturizing cream right away. MY
SKIN HAS TRANSFORMED! I am in love. My skin
now has only 1~2 active spots the rest is just marks. If I get a flare up, the
micro releasing power of my Oceanside Tretinoin flattens it over night even
when I am not applying it that night. I am now a true believer. The overall texture
of my skin has improved, I now could say I have 白里透红, or
white, soft skin with a tint of red. My pore size has significantly reduced and
I no longer have “parentheses” laugh lines. I am forever grateful.
Dermatologist visit (2/19/14)
During my visit, my dermatologist and I are both very very
happy of my progress so far, however I had several active pustules and she
injected 5% cortisol shots to 7 spots. It
was quite painful but I did see the spots flatten over the course to the next 2
days. We have decided to decrease my Doxycycline from taking it twice a day to
only in the morning. And my next visit is in mid-April. All is well and I am a
happy girl.
