okay, so its been 2 months since i stopped accutane. Oily skin is back and acne is coming back. Im getting a new pimple everyday. Went to my appointment today to ask my derm if i can start another course. He said its still to early to start another course etc, I get it, he just worried about my health. He prescribed me Retin-A but i dont have insuracne to buy a $$$ cream. My plan is to call him tomorrow and tell him i cant afford Retin-A and the acne/oli is starting to affect my social life agian, which it is, I hate going to the bathroom every 1-2 hours to blott my face with toilet paper. I cant go to another derm because he was the only affordable one. If all else fails I will probably buy tane online...probably.

 

The leaflet I have says that you have to wait at least 2 months before you start another course.

Are you sure that the root of your acne isn't somewhere else? If I were you I'd visit an endocrynologist, see if they can run some tests on you.

Umm how can you afford Accutane if you can't afford Retin A?

Accutane is serious stuff, your doc is doing the right thing.
