Another miserable flare up!

Carina is down with a bout of boils on her scalp. She has now been suffering with this for about 2 months or so and has gotten worse. She is currently on acutane 20 mg. I have been giving her benadryl try and help her sleep because the boils on head hurt badly that it makes sleeping hard. She went to allergist yesterday the doctor told her her condition has nothing to do with food. She was looking at carinas diagnosis from UCD Mind Ins about KIDS Syndrome, so I made an appt to see them. Carina tried colidal silver on head, is taking goldenseal and taralax (probiotics). Tomorrow is derm appt I will be asking for flucanozole as I have been reading in my past blogs she has taken it and it seemed to work. She is close to her period however like I said this bout of boils on her scalp, the itch has been going on now for about 2 months.
Her face is looking better but she has 3 new acne spots. The rest of her body seems to be doing ok.

Up and coming appointments

On Aug 26 she has appointment with allergist. Then she has an appointment to see neurologist.

As of August 2015 problem-scalp

Carina started retaking acutane 20 mg. Her head prior to taking this med has been horrible. Itchy, pimple/boil/dryness all over her head. It is driving her crazy.
Her face was horrible when on humera however since she has started acutane I can see a little clear up.
Her scalp is the main concern right now.
Her body seems to be ok right now. No new boils that I know of.
Will try and take her off of milk products for 2 weeks.
Put in an order to Dr Sibumani for an antifungal shampoo for carinas head.
She still is getting headaches, will put her back on drops, seems to have worked in the past.
She did come back from playing softball in Omaha, however she has had the scalp problems prior to that.
A reminder to me, when Carina one time gave herself a shot of Humira, she felt like she was going to pass out, she kind of went into what seemed like a seizure, then i got her to the couch, very lethargic, call 911. Firemen and EMT's came, her vitals were good. Per Dr Sibumani sometimes this can happen due to the shot not Humera, so he had her lay down next time when giving shots and all went well. Everytime after that she was ok.
Headaches have been consistent pretty much every day. Lasting up to maybe__ mins.
Still having fire like symptoms in her arm.
