I've Finally Taken The Big Step..

Which is accutane. I'm on my fifth day, so far 20mg a day but increasing the dose up to 40 mg during the coming weeks.
I can't believe I'm experiencing NO SIDE EFFECTS! Feels like they've given me the wrongs meds?

And I've been TERRIFIED for this. Just hoping things will stay this way even though the dose is going up...
Wish me good luck. Hopefully my life will be a lot easier by the summer.

20mg/day is not a lot and it's only been 5days. You will see some side effects as your dose goes up

Especially DRY lips hehe! I've been super lucky because all my side effects have subsided after a few weeks... except for dry lips!

Good luck

That's probably true but hopefully they won't be bad. I've tried it once before and then I had side effects even on 20 mg. How long have you been on it for and what's your dose?

I'm doing alright, thank you. I was just about to add more, then I realised that when I was here yesterday, I spotted a comment you left on your last entry several weeks ago and I left an essay there. Posted Image
