New break out


I was hoping that since my last break out healed a few weeks ago, I wouldn't have another one for a while. I noticed a deep purple area a couple days ago about .5 cm in diameter on the interior of my right ankle. I am writing today because I notice the pain now, about a 4 on the scale of 1-10.

I am currently taking these medications:
ASA 325 mg, 1 daily
Foltx tab, 1 daily
Pentoxifylline 400 mg, TID
Gabapentin (Neurontin) 400mg, TID

I have taken Tramadol 375.5/325, 2 tab every 6 hours for pain in the past, though discontinued about 3 weeks ago when the pain subsided. I also discontinued Dipridamole 75mg, TID due to elevated liver function. We plan on starting a new steroid as soon as my liver function returns to normal.

We are leaving for spring break on a Caribbean cruise this Friday. I am hopeful it won't impact my trip.
