Brief Update

I've got a few new diagnoses on top of the others but we're working through it.

Crohn's disease, hidradenitis suppurativa, migraines, psoriasis, and polymalgia rheumatica.

I'm on a 60 day taper of steroids and an experimental dosage of Humira at 80mg per week.

Will update later.

Argan Oil

Argan oil! I am in love with this stuff. The Body Shop Wild Argan Oil  smells amazing and is good for hair and body. I have the  solid  and it makes a great cuticle oil. The label says not to use on the face but I may have already done that... I might grab a few items the next time I’m near a Body Shop because I really just want to smell like this all the time.  The Josie Maran Argan Oil Light  is a liquid and has no smell and can be used all over, including the face. It’s super effective at getting rid of flakes and dry patches. It also plumps wrinkles and improves skin elasticity. The “Light” version is different from  normal Argan Oil , it sinks into skin faster and dries with no extra shine, but from what I can tell it is missing some of the skin repairing properties of regular Argan Oil.

I don't take gym selfies...

The dermatologist said that sweating might help with the flares. Not losing weight necessarily, just being more active. For the first week I did 30 minutes on the treadmill, five times that week. I did it. I took my ass down stairs and did my treadmill time. I sometimes crashed afterward, but I did it. I bought new sports bras. I run to get my heart rate up then walk for a while, alternating as needed. I couldn't run with my old shitty sports bras. I bought the sports bras. Then there was a holiday weekend and a funeral and I didn't walk. And now I have hard spots in one arm pit and my stomach is raging. I did 20 minutes this morning. It was slow, I had to take a break, but it was 20 minutes. Now my stomach hurts and it's not getting better. But I did it. And I will try again tomorrow.
