riding the tane train!

Male, 19.
Moderate to Severe Nodular Cystic Acne
I break out mostly on the right side of my face(this is where its horrible, at first I thought I was allergic to the detergent I used on my bed sheets), jawline, the right side of my forehead, and my chin.




Started on December 2nd

My derm said shed put me on Amnesteem simply because she didnt like the two other generic brands, "too many side effects."


anyways im on 40mg, took my first pill yesterday.
HARDEST FCKNG BLISTER PACK TO OPEN, EVER. it was epic.
took literally 3 minutes, i didnt want to break the pill, haha



so here I am on Day 2.
nothing, haha


Sidenotes
-But as I type, my right upper radius, close to my wrist, hurts. side affect of accutane, I'm not sure... no other part of my body hurts..?

-my mouth feels dry.

-My mom might lose her job in February, she works at Washington Mutual, so yeah, I might lose my insurance AND my Accutane. =(
And by then it'll be my third month. I need to be on this for about 6-7 months my derm said.

-Oh yeah, I started on the 2nd but next appointment isnt until Jan 6th. Dont I still have to take my blood test before then, I get it done at the same place..but I'm missing four days of Accutane, isnt it supposed to be continuous? Maybe the doctors get Christmas vacation too.
