Day 14/15 - I missed posting yesterday because I had a pretty busy day. Acne is so funny sometimes and its amazing how it starts messing with your mind. The emotional roller coaster that it causes you...

Spend some time and read through a lot of logs here. Most will start out exactly the same as yours does (yes, you can post here as often as you want). Expect to have dry skin, and expect things to get...

Day 13 - My face has calmed down a bit since day 9-10. I did get a nice couple of blackheads coming up on my nose. These dont bother me too much, they usually go away within a day or so. They are unsi...

Day 12 - Updating this log early today. I woke up expecting to have some improvement from yesterday and the day before because I thought those actives would be the only thing I had to deal with. Well,...

Do you live in the US? That's not common here, most people go on a 4-7 month cycle. There is an accumulative dose that you need to get to to make sure your acne stays away. I would get a second opinio...

Day 11 - Today has been pretty good. Depending on how I feel while I'm writing my log, I've noticed, will determine if my log is a positive or negative post. It has opened my eyes as well to reading o...

Wow, I think I have been suffering the same issues. I have seen your posts on the Rosacea forums. I was placed on accutane. Which is supposed to starve the yeast by cutting off the sebum production. I...

Hey wombat, I've read a few of your posts and just wanted to give you my 2 cents. When I was in high school I did a course of accutane. A couple of years later my acne started to come back. I went to ...

Call your derm and have him get you some antibiotics or steroids to calm down the inflammation. It will pass, youre probably on the tail end of it by now. Make sure you are using a heavy moisturizer l...

I would also disagree with Uncrowned. Accutane is for acne. It doesn't care what type of acne you have. It will eliminate it. You for sure we're a candidate for accutane. For sure. Accutane will work...

Day 10 - I thing I have begun my initial breakout. The last 2 days I have developed 3 active pimples, still only have the 3 active pimples right now. But they have all come to head. I usually would ha...

Day 9 - My mood has been down the past couple of days. I am really trying to work on staying positive. I have said it before, and the only reason why my mood is concerning to me right now is because, ...

for most people, its a very common thing

Day 8 - day 7 was a rough one for me. The hardest part is going to work. I have been more critical of my face since I started accutane, which should not be the case. I need to lower my expectations of...

Seems a little early for an initial breakout, it was probably going to happen whether you took the tane or not. I just finished week 1 and my skin is more oily than before. It is also more irritated.

Im glad your course is working for you!! keep us posted with pictures!!

This guy had a similar story, he said it is unrelated to accutane.

Bump

Day 7 - I am going to make a commitment to myself to make these logs a possitive outlet. I think that I come on here and too ofter I search for the bad stories. When I read others logs I find myself l...
