I am actually sitting in music class right now, with one of my kids. I work in special ed, with middle and high schoolers. Being special ed, some of them lack the mind-mouth filter.   The thing...

Well, so far the Sneaker is still sneaking. I'm not srue whether to be happy about that, or to want to get it over with. I have a very NON-Sneaker on my left temple. It isn't big, but it is definite...

I finally have water again! I'm not sure how many days I've been without, but I am SO happy to have it back! My skin is extremely dry right now. I've put moisturizers on it, and it is still flaky. ...

Someday we will look back on these moments and think they are funny! Right? I sincerely hope so. And I hope that I won't have any more moments like that. I'll be taking make up and moisturizer to w...

Yesterday and today.... days 21 and 22, I believe. Yesterday was pretty average, except for having no water. My skin was a little dryer than usual, but not terrible. I went for dinner with family, a...

I am on Absorica, and yep, the pills are big. The derm told me that 80mg was the dosage she wanted me to take, but said that is really difficult, so to start out taking 40 for a while. So... not sure ...

Best of luck to you Justagirl! Stock up on lip stuff, for sure!

How are you? Is the higher dosage still working for you? And how did the book club go?

Ah! I have no idea why my pictures are upside-down in the above post...buuut.....meh. I'm sure you all get "the picture"! *giggle/snort* They made me laugh. Especially that last one. The eyes are am...

It sounds like everything is going really well for you! I hope it continues. I have had a little trouble with reflux since I started Accutane. At first I was just blaming orange juice, but I've reali...

Kim, I have Californian rabbits (white, with black nose, ears, tail, and feet), and White Rock chickens. There is also an enormous indoor cat that lives here, and is currently passed out in the bed af...

Ciara, how are you? Are your hands swelling too? I hope this passes, but if it hasn't, you should probably call a doctor, and find out what is going on! I wish I had seen this earlier too!

My car started yesterday, and I went out for groceries (hooray)! I came back home, got out of the car, and heard water rushing. I knew that it was not from the creek, and as I got closer to the house...

Aww, very sweet boyfriend. It is so encouraging when they notice and comment on things. Just makes the glow even better, I think. I've been pretty dry. I'm on day...20. I can hardly believe it is...

Welcome Waytooldforthis. I was offered accutane several years ago, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. My turning point came with that huge cyst, and the realization that at 37, I have other p...

Kim, I do live in the country. I have rabbits and chickens (And a humongous indoor cat). I was actually awake a lot last night worrying over them, with the low temperatures (Not nearly as cold as whe...

SO glad that you are feeling good! And Way To Go on visiting the staff room. Thank you for telling me about the rash. I have a kind of cold induced rash that comes on every once in a while. I thoug...

I really hope the hematologist can clear some things up for you. Don't give up, yet.

How are your hands doing, Kim? What do you use on them? I discovered that my left hand had this very find little rash on it this morning. It was very rough to the touch. Now, a few hours later, my ...

Sounds like you are doing great! It is good to see some positive side effects listed, too. Hopefully they oily hair thing will change soon (for both of us), without reversing into super dry-ness.

Thank you Ciara and Kim for the New Year wishes. I woke up this morning with 2 minor sore spots. The one is on my forehead somewhere. It was one of those that I brushed across, and for a moment it...

It has now been 2 weeks since I started Accutane. I am still having a little of the dryness, but moisturizing helps, a lot. On January 1 I woke to a zit farm. I had little pimples all along my temp...

Happy New Year, Kim! I hope you are still feeling better. Here's to a New Year, and clear skin!

Happy New Year! I wish you a good year, with clearing skin, and renewed confidence.

Wow! So sorry that things didn't work out at the doctor today. Hopefully they (doctor and staff) can get their act together, and you will be able to start soon! That had to be disappointing. Happy ...
