Curio-Box

Life of a deadbeat. Surprise!

downer

It’s been a week and a half since I took an Accutane pill, and the flare is the same as it ever was. I couldn’t sleep last night because of the burning. I’ve been taking at least 4 Ibuprofen a day to deal with the inflammation, but it really doesn’t do much. I haven’t left the house since Thanksgiving because of this.

My derm appointment is tomorrow, so I’m going to ask for 10mg pills, as I don’t want to go too long without Accutane and start breaking out on top of everything else. My Rosacea is 2x as bad as it’s ever been in my life now… I just don’t understand how it can go from relatively calm to flaring severely for two weeks straight. I really hope there’s something the derm can give me for the inflammation. The last thing I want to do is have to stop Accutane and start breaking out again. Things had been going so well.

Forgot to add: My hair has been shedding more than usual the past few days, which I read can be a side effect of taking Ibuprofen daily, so I’m going to have to stop taking it. :/

:[ sorry that all the medication is bugging you. it must be rough having to figure all of this out. o.0 I can hardly figure out how many Tylenol to take when I have a headache!

I didn’t know ibuprofen did that to hair…I used to take Advil all the time for my leg, I can’t now though…I wonder if that’s why I shed so much more when I was taking it? Probably.

Nope…I don’t have MSN :[ But I have my e-mail. Lol and I can add your phone number to My Circle and text you unlimitedly. :D

I’ll look into getting MSN but I’m not sure if my computer could handle it…

Ack! I’m going to miss you. Can’t believe you’re leaving on Thursday!!!

P.S. Drewsk said you got your permit again! Congrats!

I’m going to miss you too!! And yes, I’m a bum and still haven’t gone in for my actual license. :P I really can’t stand driving, I’d much prefer it if Michael gets his license before me, lol.

Does it feel like Christmastime to you? I’m having a hard time believing we’re already in December! My mom got tickets to the Bolshoi’s Nutcracker in Florida… I’m so excited!! If that doesn’t bring in the Christmas spirit, I don’t know what will!

that’s ok. i really don’t want to drive at all either…it’s just a big hassle. though i suppose i should at least attempt at learning. haha.

nope. i don’t know why, but it doesn’t feel anything like christmas. maybe it will when nutcracker rehearsals end, and everything settles down. christmas in my family is always so quiet, and nothing this month has been quiet so far!

Oooh. i bet that’ll be amazing! i love the bolshoi (i saw them perform la bayadere here years ago). you’ll have to tell me all about it!

Yeah, Christmas is going to be pretty quiet for us too this year. We’ll probably still be jetlagged anyway, so I hope it’s nice and simple. =]

I’ll definitely be making a post after seeing the ballet! I have some pictures from our last trip that I haven’t uploaded, so I’ll probably upload those and these upcoming new ones in a big December batch, lol.
