Picato Day 7

So I can't believe the dramatic change. I have been drowning my skinwith a layer of vitamin E oil and then a layer of frankincense. The vitamin E has soften the hard, thick scaly scabs which I have gently been able to roll away from my skin. I feel more confident to go out in public now. I just look like I have a bad case of eczema.
My skin is itchy and I feel normal again. God I hope this is the end of the carcinoma. I don't go back to the Doctor until 6 weeks now.
I am going to apply frankincense every day from now on as a preventative measure.

Picato Day 6 - A New Dawn

Picato Day 6
Finally, I'm seeing some improvement.  I spooked myself yesterday.  Looking at all the support material and websites, I couldn't find any pics that showed a reaction as severe as mine. But today, I'm looking feeling much better and will be ringing the Skin Clinic to make sure I'm right on track.

 I smothered my skin in Vitamin E, Coconut and organic Frankincense once again.  Before going to bed I applied Vitamin E and Frankincense and I think that made the world of difference. The photos don't show it but my skins less angry.

Day 5 Picato 
Today, I'm feeling pretty low.  I've woken up with a swollen face again and hard scabby shell on my face.  It is itchy, dry and stinging.  I'm feeling low as I'd hoped my Monday or Tuesday I could go out in public with just a few sores on my face but this is just major and not looking to ease off any time soon.
I have a show and run cool water over my face, which softens the scabs.  When they have dried off a little I apply coconut oil and frankincense oil.  It smarts a little, it didn't yesterday. I also applied vitamin E yesterday.

I have bought some surgical masks to cover my face.  I have 3 public events booked over the next 2 days.  Do I go and cover my face? Do I just go, meeting strangers saying "this is who I am", or do I cancel? I don't know what to do.

Feeling low, drained and tired. The discomfort is not easing at all.  My skin even seems redder.  Hoping tomorrow I see improvement but I may even call the doctor.

Have just done another coating of oil.  My skin is drinking it up! Seems that the discomfort stems from where the tight scabs are.  I picked off a little from the side of my nose and it stung but now feels good (even though it is very pink and tender).  I'm too scared to do too much as the skin is very delicate. It doesn't run with blood, but does bring little dots to the surface.  Might be too soon.  Can you tell from the pics I'm feeling pretty low today?



Picato Day 4

Day 4 seems to be the worst.  I wake up with a severely swollen face this time.  My oldest son says I look like the little fat boy from Up.  I wash my face and smother it in coconut oil and frankincense oil. It feels sooooo good. By the afternoon it has settled down considerably. 



Picato Day 3
Day 3 my face looked much the same except for a bit of swelling.  We were all finding the experience amusing.

You can see from the picture of the right of me smiling that my face/eyes are swollen.  With my cheeks so swollen, when I smile, eyes squint.  My skin is a little weepy still.

I think that yesterday may have been the most difficult.  It seems that my skin seems to burn around 1 to 2 hours after application.  It was particularly painful yesterday but when I put my mind on something else, it's okay. I was cooking dinner last night and thought the steam and heat would be the end of me, but it actually subsided after concentrating on it.
I found sitting with the fan gently blowing on my face a great relief.

By night time the pain is completely gone.  Interestingly when we sleep our skin rejuvenates, apparently. My skin was constantly weeping.
This morning I applied my last dose of Picato.  It feels like I'm applying it to scales. I feel like I've got a facial mask on, if I smile hard, my skin craps (and weeps a little).
I'm not sure that glasses on my nose is ideal or if it is inhibiting the work, however, I am blind without them.

So, I am hopeful that from this point forward you will be see the regeneration of my new skin, cancer free.

Wednesday, 1 March 2017

Last night my face starting weeping.  It was not yellow pus but clear plasma like exretion.  It just kept running from skin.  At first a blister appeared on the side of my nose. This disappeared and  then it just weeped, and weeped.  I sprayed water on my face and had a cool fan blowing on my face.  My nose was throbbing.

I have woken up with very, very puffy swollen eyes.  My skins feels so raw and sensitive. Little blisters have appeared.

Reluctantly I have applied the next does of Picato.  I wonder what my face will do tonight when the reaction really kicks in.

I'm disappointed that the suspect carcinoma is not reacting at all. Just sitting there, unaffected, unblistered. Little shit!

I'm feeling very uncomfortable.  My face is burning up.  I'm doing some work as a distraction, which is working well but I feel pretty drained.
My cheeks are throbbing. Let's see how the night unfolds.
