Hi! I'm definitely following your log. We are about the same weight (110-115 here) so I'm interested in what dosage your dr has you on and what maybe side effects I could expect at such a dose. By the...

Well, I tried to upload pictures but it is just not working nm.

Just a simple thought, have you ever tried using head and shoulders with zinc? I've heard that it works wonders for people with neck and back acne. I have facial acne, not back or neck so I don't have...

thank you for the reply. if you dont mind me asking, how long have you been off of accutane and is your skin still clear? also, to anyone, one of my other concerns is i already have very fair and se...

That's basically how I understand it also, if you took 20 mg you will just have to take the medication longer. It's simply as long as it takes to get your cumulative dose necessary for remission If y...

Day 18 Ugh. So I was going to post every week but things have been rough, I keep breaking out. They are small breakouts and to be honest are breakouts I've been expecting. Nothing really NEW just clog...

Absolutely yes. If it is having this effect on you and you've been dealing with it for so long, I would totally go for it. Also it sounds like you're exhausted your options. I took it and it's truly n...

Ah! I'm so happy for you! You deserve this lady, you've been to hell and back with this whole experience from what I could understand from your log, and I am just so glad you are happy. I am smack in ...

Hey Charlotte, I know this feeling all too well I just posted on my Accutane log and mentioned how I'm in a little IB right now too. I am on day 14 and my IB started about 5 days ago. Although 10 mg ...

Day 14 I think I'm experiencing my IB right now, which is such a bummer because I am on Spring break with the in-laws. I got a fun cheek zit that actually only lasted a couple days and is still kind o...

It's been kind of rough this week with the in laws, simply because everyone is wanting to do a lot of hanging out and going to dinner, which is usually fun....but when you have pimples on your face it...

  I know you're probably right, and that once I stop worrying about it and caring about it as much it'll go away, and/or I'll enjoy things more. It's just difficult to get past it My husban...

I know exactly how you feel love! Acne can keep us from doing the things we love.... and as much as people say, "don't let it control your life." it's just not that simple. I wish it were. However, I ...

Day 8 The first week is done and I have to say, it's been incredibly uneventful. I feel great, no real dry eyes, lips, nose, the only thing that has been significantly less oily is my hair which I abs...

I was thinking the same thing as gkitten 25, try purified water I remember reading or seeing something a long time ago about how Gwyneth Paltrow used Evian water facial sprays, seems like a great ide...

Well, here I am again. Taking my first pill today. I am 27 and have had mild - moderate acne most of my life. It's genetic, my mom and sister both had horrible cystic acne and I was no different. Abou...

Hey Lovelycrimsonred, I am right there with you! I know it's late and you already know how things went with the doctor a few days back, but I hope they helped you. I am starting my second course any d...

Good Luck lady! I'm excited for you, it will work beautifully I finished my first course last July and unfortunately starting my second course next week, however mine came back because I was not eati...

How are things going Aresnal17? Hope all is well with your second course!

Ahhhh I am right there with you! It's absolutely infuriating! I have has some of them for months and they are on both sides of my chin like this gal in the photo. Some of them have turned into normal ...

Best of luck to you!! Accutane will work, You're on a good road keep us posted!

What moisturizer are you using? I know this is probably a bit of a stretch but my derm told me during my last treatment that I could slather my face with butter and still wouldn't break out.... I obvi...

** Sorry I realized this was already resolved by OP but can't erase anything...hmmm I was almost immediately clear and had really horrible acne pre-accutane. I never had an initial breakout and my s...

Hydrogen Peroxide has worked wonders for me! Once a pimple is either popped (bad I know) or pops itself I will dab some onto the open area and wait for it to bubble, dab, then leave it alone and usual...

Definitely GO! You will be so glad you did, and she really won't care. I've dated men with acne, like severe acne and I never noticed or cared Truly. It will be so fun and a great way to get the acne...
