Hi Everyone, I am on my second stint of accutane in and I am about 5 months into it taking 40mg a day. About 3 months into it I started having this numbness/head pressure at the top of my head, which happened maybe once every week or two and happened for less then 2 minutes. These can be best described kind of as tension headaches, and over the past two week they have gotten more frequent to the point where I have one at least once a day and as I am laying in bed before I go to sleep. I called my doctor a week ago (Thursday) and she said to stop taking it to see if they go away and to call her back Monday. Turns out they didn't go away and I have had a tension headache the past 5 days now and it seems to be progressively getting worst, for example the left side of my face just went numb for a couple seconds. So I talked to my doctor on Tuesday and she took me off accutane completely and told me to try to treat the headaches/tension/numbness with Tylenol. I have been taking extra strength Tylenol around the clock for the past 2 days now and it has now helped at all and like I said they are getting worst. She did say something about accutane taking 3 weeks to completely leave the system and that maybe it would take so time to go away. I was just wondering if anyone has had similar issues to this and them going away after awhile because I'm a little freaked out about this.

Thanks!
