Accutane would be for you, only if you have tried everything before. As its a very serious drug. Also remember that times a healer.

So it's nearly been a week. Obviously no major difference so far. Still a long way to go. Trying to remain positive and just think of the outcome at the end!

Thanks Im trying to stay positive.   Yes I won't leave his office until I've got an accutane prescription again!   It's the only thing that works.

Okay I'm glad accutane is working for you again!   However I agree with mk04. I'm starting to believe accutane is only a temporary solution

Dry skin - which I still have! Yeah I'm sure that's why I relapsed. I hope when I go back my derm doesn't give me the same treatment.   It's so frustrating.
