Hi All Just a quick note to say that I finished the course in April 2015 and it worked like a charm. I have had no lasting side effects and my skin has been perfect since then :))) So all...

Yes, I've been on 60mg the entire time, which is probably good, because I'm 80kg, so on a lower dose I'd have to be on it for ages! My derm (I don't really trust her) wants me to finish after 5 months...

Soooooo, it's been almost 4 months now! I have to say that I've been really lucky and have had only minor side effects. Also, acne cleared up entirely after 3 months. No matter the hormones, no matter...

Period was late 5 days, but then showed up and was the same as usual, so I suppose I'm kind of like you in this respect, skaims. No PMS though - if that's due to Roaccutane, then that must be my favou...

Coffeegirl30 oh yes, I can relate to having dry/sensitive skin AND acne at the same time. It has always been a pain with all salon cosmetics, because there really doesn't seem to exist a product which...

Thanks skaims! We are in this together and we'll get through it together So I'm finishing my second week today, DAY 15. In terms of symptoms, I've noticed something really weird: I seem to get them...

Thanks, skaims, that gives me hope. The hot flushes lasted only a couple of days, and now only stinging remained. Hopefully that will go, too. DAY 8 Lips and skin are catching up big time - it starte...

DAY 6 Body aches, dry lips, dry eyes, itchy scalp, but all of these are really minor, to the extent that if I wasn't on accutane, I probably wouldn't notice. So for the time being I'm allowing for the...

I'm on a high dose too (60mg/day), and I can totally relate to the moisturiser problems. Like you, I had avoided moisturising for a long time, and was perfectly happy. Now my skin often feels really h...

Thanks for all you replies, they did help a whole lot! MaryC I guess you're right that it's our decision in the end. It's just so much easier to doubt my own decisions. But yes, I admit I should pro...

Hello all First of all, thank you all for being here. I've been a quiet observer for the past several months and it's helped me a lot to read your logs. It's good to feel I'm not alone. I never thou...
