Past Accutane Users: lasting effects a few months after??

So about 2.5 months ago I completed my 6 month accutane course. I think I was one of the unlucky few who had quite a lot of the side effects during, but now after I still seem to have some of the same aches and pain that started over the course. The "after" does not seem to be very well documented, so I wanted to know if anyone seems to experience any side effects even a few months after stopping? I started getting headaches the second day so then for a week I lowered my dose (from 30 to 10mg) which was already pretty low. Then eventually I worked up to 60mg. I still got headaches that were pretty persistent although they were always very mild-just a nuisance. Even now I still have the headaches that feel the same. Any one else have something similar?

unfortunately side effects do persist even after you stop taking accutane.

Can you post all your blood tests and give all detail re side effects.

Yes, if youcould let us know if you have other side effects, like dryness, vision issues, joint issues, etc along with the headaches. Have you seen anyone or labs?
