So I finished my second course of accutane about 7 months ago and my oily skin has returned, along with acne.

The second time i tried accutane I was put on a lower dose for a longer period of time. I put up with all the awful side effects once again with the hope that I would finally be cured.

I'm feeling really depressed and hopeless right now. I have an appointment to see my GP next week and he will hopefully refer me BACK to dermatology. I imagine I wont get an appointment with dermatology for about 6 weeks or so, I'm not looking forward to the wait!

In the mean time I'm using Clinique anti-blemish solutions 3 step system, Dalacin T Clindamycin topical lotion and Epiduo to try and keep the blemishes at bay until I see the dermatologist.

Some of the spots are really quite painful and I'm getting new ones everyday.

Felling really down and dont want to go out of the house!
