Week 10.5 (Day 67)

Well, it’s been awhile.  I’ve been crazy crazy busy with school, cross country, and everything else, so I decided that after about 5 weeks off I should at least take a set of pictures and give an updated status.  Okay, so my joints hurt; a lot.  But, I’m running a lot too, so we’ll see how much my joints hurt once cross country ends at the end of October.  Next, my dosage is still at 60mg, and my bilirubin levels are still elevated, but at the same elevated level, so it’s fine.  Carmex is the best lip balm, it’s worked very very well so far, I can’t get enough of it (literally).  Also, I think my face has cleared up a fair amount.  Given, this is the first set of pictures since week 5/6, so there should be some major clearing, but for comparison, I put week 1’s picture at the top and week 10,5’s picture on the bottom (week 10.5 is the blue shirt).  Also, the full week 10.5 gallery is at the bottom per usual.

Day 35: A Good Skin Day?

Today was my first day of school, which for me, means school ID pictures.  Luckily for me, my skin was looking pretty good, so it should come out nice on my ID.  I know people have good or bad hair days, but do people have good skin days?  Who knows, but that’s what I’m going to call it.  After my increased dosage, I’m not noticing anything different as far as side effects go, although I know that my skin, nose, and lips will become dryer and will require more moisturizing.  It’s kind of annoying, but it’s worth it I think.  Stay tuned, tomorrow I’ll post progress pictures (for real this time ).
