Blurry vision

Hey all. I've entered my 5th month of accutane (7 month course) and was just bumped to 60mg from 40mg. I've noticed, and this has happened about 2-3 times total, that when I sometimes wake up I have a little bit of blurred vision for about 20 or 30 minutes, or until I take a shower. For example, if I were to try and read, I would see about 1.75 of the words, not quite double

Is this due to dry eyes and not enough water? It subsides and goes back to normal. Could it be increased brain pressure?

My derm is closed until Monday so just looking here for an explanation/advice on what to do.

Thanks!

Couldn't get my prescription today?

Well today I went to my derm at 11:00 and went to fill my prescription. I went back at 5 to pick it up and they said it couldn't be filled, that perhaps my derm had not called it in? Do I have to go online to the ipledge site or call my derm?

I plan on calling my derm tomorrow to get it sorted out, but I'm just wondering what could be the possible explanation for this?

On month 1 & 2 I didn't have to do anything but go drop off my prescription and picked it up with no problem later.

What products to use?

Well today was my 30th day on tane 40mg/day (135lb 20yr old male). I have noticed my body, mainly my arms are getting a bit dry, and my lips are kind of getting to that point.

Each day and night I use CeraVe lotion to moisturize my face, and wash with baby aquaphor and use head and shoulders for shampoo/conditioner.

At night time I always put on aquaphor lip balm. For the daytime I just use chapstick, the usual brand, which isn't that great.


I need some recommendations for a moisturizing body wash/soap bar, and some sort of chapstick for the day. I don't use aquaphor in the day because it makes my lips look super shiny and looks like they have lip gloss on them.

So, anyone?

Knowning what you know now

Lets say you could go back from the day you were born and relive your whole life knowing what you know now.

So the only thing you can't change is the fact you have/had acne(but you can change hygiene if you want), and you only can change 3 things in your life.

1. Start playing soccer at younger age ( I have always wanted to play )

2. Throughout life become friends with "real" people and not the "fake" ones.

3. Apply to college much earlier because I know what I know now and could get into a better school


Well, what would you change? For example, not asking a certain girl out, starting up a certain sport, making friends with certain people, etc.

sexual side effects?

Well I'm on accutane 22 days or so right now. I have done a bit of reading that it can cause sexual side effects. Has anyone noticed or expierenced this?

Does anyone know if guys can stop getting erections, is it only while on the drug, or does it last forever? I'll have to ask my derm but and she didn't mention anything about it.

Any experiences (hopefully none) or just knowledge you guys have picked up along the way about this topic would be appreciated.

I would like to avoid this.
