I didn't wear makeup today, but I did tonight. It didn't seem to irritate me, but I washed my face before applying it. I did not wash my face this morning since I read that Carac cream is time released. A friend of mine has treated patches on her face a few times with it, and told me that she washes it off in the morning. Her doctor told her she could. Mine didn't tell me one way or the other, so I will spend time tomorrow looking that up. Tomorrow is the last day my mom will be here. She's never been with me through a treatment, which would be awesome, but I'll manage. Still hopeful that maybe with this different medication it won't be so bad. Today my face feels fine, with just the lightest hint of pink starting to come out.

Thanks for writing. I've just gone through 2 weeks and its nice to know you aren't alone - even if your treatment was a couple of years ago. the bright side of this is learning that I need to protect my skin better and the happiness of knowing this will prevent something worse in the future.
ReplyDeleteToday is my final day of round one, twice a day for three weeks. It has been extremely painful this last week. But thankful for the last night. How long does it take heal? Thank you for sharing your journey!
ReplyDeleteChristina, thank you for posting your journey, it has been a big help as I begin my journey with flourourcil. I hope you are well and your boys are doing fine. Many many thanks Kathy
