Hi my name is Kristy I've been suffering with bad acne since I was 14, I am now turning 23 in September. I have cystic acne on my cheeks, jawline, chin, and back. I have acne on my chest, arms, neck, and forehead. I have always known I had bad skin and was embarrassed and dealt with it by covering up with foundation. I am now at a point where I cry about my skin, sometimes cancel plans because I'm ashamed of how bad my skin has become. I still go to work 40 hours a week, feel ugly all the time, but tell everyone close to me that I'm starting Accutane. I start in exactly 2 weeks and 2 days I will post day one and a few days later when the side effects start to kick in. I will also post a before on my next blog. I am so happy and excited to get clear skin !
Good luck Kristyrain. I am a brand new member today. My 13 year old daughter starts roaccutane in 9 days. She has suffered with acne since she was 9 and we have tried everything : three different antibiotics, differin, epiduo, duac, benzoyl peroxide and she eats a healthy diet with lots of fruit and vegetables.
We will be looking out for your posts and will post our updates too. Really hope it works!!!
