I hope my body is adaptive like yours, my lips crust up and it just looks like I'm a cast away dying for water!   Hahah, ditto.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing but the test came back negative (He said at first something came up but then it didn't show up on the reading so it is possibly the very beginning of one) so I guess...

DAY 26 So I ended up not taking the anitbiotics and I feel fine... so I might try and wait it out because I'm pretty weird about taking meds. Lots of new stuff happening this week. You know the li...

In your about me everything you listed as a horrible severe side effect is cosmetic. Please, I don't mean to insult you but maybe this is more of a psychological issue and not a physical one. I feel ...

Good luck with your course. And hey if you're going through all the trouble of accutane you should eat all the wheat and dairy you want . I had a borderline eating disorder because of my skin, freaki...

Day 24. ughhh I have a UTI. fml. I am prone to them, although I haven't had one in a couple years. I've heard of people getting them while on acctuane so I kind of expected it but damnnn it sucks. I ...

I was so scared too and it's good that you are concerned about what you are putting in to your body. A lot of people don't care, as long as they have clear skin! I researched accutane for years and fl...

If I were you I would switch to the redness solutions line also by clinique. I've worn both and they are very similar. The reason for this is when I stopped wearing the acne solutions my face broke ou...

Thanks for the replies!

Anyone have any tips for helping with the chapped lips. Mine look so disgusting and are very painful. I have been putting a lot of chapstick on but that has caused me to break out a lot on my lips??? ...

Sounds like you're on the right track! I found that boots has an amazing lip balm (in cocoa butter and coconut i think) that keeps me moisturized. I found vaseline to be drying myself. Dryness suck...

Day 17! I am finally finished with my first box (3 packets worth). Last night I went to a show so I drank a little. I only had two beers and they were pretty spaced out. I did notice I felt really de...

Go on youtube and watch the hundreds of videos people have made about their accutane experiences. Also, go to the "accutane logs" section of this board and just educate yourself as much as possible be...

Oh yeah and is anyone still using a toner while on accutane?

Day 15 Yeah you're right sasch. I'm glad you were able to get back on accutane! I'm experiencing anxiety again... and this time it's even during the day. I'm just gonna fight my way through it thoug...

Day 13. Lips are sooooo chapped. So my derm apparently already scheduled my appointment for Nov 8th but I will be out of pills by then. I called and asked them to make it sooner and they were l...

So either I am a day ahead of my count or you're a day behind because I thought I was day 11 and you started before me. Hmmmm we're already losing count. I guess that is a good thing . I use the ce...

I can really relate to you saying your family and friends are sick of hearing you talk about your skin. I feel the same way, but they just don't understand how much our skin consumes are lives! Unless...

Thanks Sasch! Good luck with your appointment. I hope this course will cure you for good! Day 11: Definitely starting my IB. It's pretty bad. For a second there I thought I was going to bypass it. ...

Good news guys!! I have been taking my full dose and have been sleeping great. I think this night anxiety is finally over! I'm so happy because that was hard to deal with. Today is Day 10! I can ...

Day 7 I ended up not taking a pill last night, so I only took 20mg yesterday. I slept much better. I took the full 40mg today though. I took tonight's pill a lot earlier and I'm hoping that will help...

Day 6 So after I got up and went to work I felt fine. All day I felt fine. The anxiety seems to only be right before I go to bed and right when I get up. I'm wondering if I should skip tonights pill ...
