My liver is gettin inflamed from this stuff, and the doctor wants me off the accutane, but im also taking an anti-anxiety medicine called lexapro that is known to cause liver problems as well. I was running a race and got hit with the worst pain ive ever felt in my life, similar to the pain I felt when I had mono and my liver was inflamed, pushing against the sides of my ribs and shooting pain throughout my side. I was wondering how consequential it would be to postpone the accutane until i find out what's causing the liver problems, because i never noticed any problems until i started taking lexapro just recently, and i was fine during the first 3 weeks on accutane. Will i lose progress in the accutane taking effect? Any help would be largely appreciated...please smile.gif

Hey, new member here .. hopefully I can still get this answered. So i just took my first dose of accutane tonight, and while looking over a bunch of these posts about accutane i read that chemical peels are absolutely off limits while taking the drug. For about 2.5 months now I've been getting Blue light L.E.D treatments from an esthetician (correct name??) and i can't believe how well it worked (I started with her as a stage 4 cystic acne and i'm now a stage 2 and still improving) .. while i can see myself with clear skin after a few more treatments with this stuff, having cream on your face 24 hours a day and fulfilling my daily regimen, complete with over 6 different topicals ( i even use friggin brazilian propolis lotion), is a pretty arduous task. Honestly, i decided i'd rather deal with these infamous accutane side effects and be able to chill at the same time.. so im on the drug, but i really really really wanna continue with the L.E.D treatments to deal with the breakouts and what not that i'm almost bound to endure.. does anyone know if its completely safe to continue getting the treatments whilst on the drug, or does it follow in suite with the chemical peels? either way, i'd really appreciate an explanation as to why...

thanks so much, and sorry for the super long post for such a short question...it's how i do
