Hey,
long story short. I have a dermatologist appointment next week and I want to enquire about Accutane, well I did until my joint issues started acting up quite badly. I have osteoarthritis in my big toe joints and I'm just wondering if you have any experience with going on accutane whilst having joint pain, back pain etc and if it made it completely worse?
I'm not sure I want to chance it tbh.
Personally, as a dancer, I have a number of sore parts on my body! My lower back can act up a lot.. But accutane never effeced it. I carried on going to the gym and dancing without any pain (i had slightly more fatigue but that was it)
I say go for it and just keep an eye on it. Go gentle on your muscles and pay attention to your body!

Oh really? Did you ever get any ankle or foot pain whilst on accutane plus doing the dancing?
A part of me seriously wants to go for it since I've had acne 13 years just about and my self esteem is tainted because of it. But there's a chance I may need surgery for my toes in the near future so I worry it will impact my healing time
