Week 2-3
	February 15, 2004
		Sorry I haven't gotten a chance to post every week like I wanted...Its a lot harder to find the time then I thought. Anyways, so as far as side effects, my lips are majorly chapped, and I now know that its due to the medicine, not to the weird baltimore winter weather, because I am presently in Savannah, Georgia, visiting family, and my lips are still really chapped. By the way, I carry a pharmacy of lip balms in my purse, including vaseline, medicated chap-stick, cherry chap-stick, medicated blistex, and the one that works surprisingly well, CVS brand chap-block.  So far I like the Vaseline the best, though, because it slides smoothly across my lips. I also like the fact that its in a tub and I can use my fingers to spread it. All the other things in tubs don't seem to work very well, but the vaseline does. My acne doesn't seem to be getting any better, but it hasn't really been getting worse either. One problem I have been noticing is that on my back, I have one or two large pimples that are very itchy-not bug bites, they are difinately pimples. Also, the skin around my nose has been extremely dry. Well, that's all I can think of, and I hope to write again next week.
