I'm approaching month 6 and my face actually looks pretty normal. There is still slight redness and flaking in some parts but overall I see a lot of white and baby smooth skin! Plus, no swollen eyelids, and I think my eyebrows are slowly growing back. I'm actually starting to look like myself again, ha. I don't know if this is simply a quiet period or if my face is finally returning to normal (I pray that it's the latter). My face has been feeling normal for about 5 days now, so I really hope it'll stay like this! Senior portrait coming up in a week....
My collarbone/chest area has been the worst at the moment. It's constantly itching, especially at night which gives me zero sleep until around 8 AM. It's like a bone-deep itch that tingles if I don't itch yet gets itchier the more I scratch it...I'm sure we've all experienced it. It's gotten less red though, and hopefully this intense itch is a healing itch.
My left arm is slowly normalizing, but it's weird because the previously red patches have turned a light pink color which is lighter than my actual skin tone...I guess it's better than red though!
Right arm is still pretty bad, very dry with a lot of scabs. However, I used to get a lot of pimples on this arm which have went away.
Overall, I think I have made progress. The itch continues to be horrible, but my skin is smoothing out. Hope all of you see progress soon, it gives me hope that I will heal.
