Catherine....Good Luck. It sucks in the beginning but things will get easier. I am a month in and have not had any major breakouts yet but i still get new pimples and clogged pores everyday - still not as bad as it was pre accutane (keeping my fingers crossed)

I am from NY as well. How did you make out with hurricane Sandy? Take care to moisturize as i have a feeling this winter is gonna be brutal.

I have felt that my appetite has decreased as well, I didn't realize this was a side effect, good luck with your treatment, I'm only a week into it and so far not to bad!
