My last course went so smoothly, but maybe that's just how I remember it. This one, not so much. It has only been a week, but things are still getting worse instead of better. This never happened last...

Wow. You're like...such a great example of the drug working. I sincerely hope you never have to do another round (ahem, as I currently am). PS. Congrats on the engagement btw!! It's always hard to ha...

DAY 16 OHHH. Lips so dry and I'm slowly rubbing all the skin off the face. Augh, I have to stop touching it. Also, pretty sure it's flaring in conjunction with my period but not positive. It could be...

DAY 9 DRY SKIN: all over face and lips. Makeup is getting hard to apply due to the shedding. Though, I do get a tiny bit of oil by the end of the day. ACNE: Yep, little pimples mostly. Larger ones po...

Yea. Got scarring. Actually...I don't even notice those without scarring anymore because my mind only seems to focus on those who are like me. But yeah, FB is the worst, that's really where I can't he...

DAY 6 So glad I started on the 1st, makes these logs easy for the first month. Anywho. Gotta call my derm about the strength training, gah, forgot. Which is really worrying me. I've been forgetting a...

Hello everyone. I realized at some point when I was nearing adulthood (I am 19 now) that I became unconcerned with a physical feature that used to bother me very much. My ears have always stuck out a ...

The nausea is normal for the first couple of pills, so dont worry. My skin also used to be extremely oily in the t-zone. After Accutane the general oilyness of my skin died down, but my t-zone tend t...

DAY 4 Significant wave of nausea right after popping the tane. Drinking lotsa water but have a headache and am tired. Edit: Nausea/stomach irritability with all three meals I had today...sigh.

Hi! Similar boat here, I'm not sure if any of this nuclear-level medication will work but, meh. You may want to avoid anything but the gentlest lotions and cleansers, BP is usually too harsh on accu...

Hey! I started a little after you, this is my 2nd round. Good luck! You may want to get this moved into the Accutane Logs. I highly recommend tracking progress and updating!

hey, we've got similar stats. I'm also on my second course. I noticed you do have some scarring near your temples and jawline, is that from before your first round? Or did you continue getting cyst po...

Hi! I had similar issues of my face not seeming clear until about 4 months into taking accutane. I have no idea why...people react differently. I'm just jealous of the ones who get thier IB and then c...

DAY 3 GENERAL: My skin had cleared up a little right before starting my course because my first derm had given me antibiotics and they'd begun working quickly (I think, that or it was the mountain of...

Hey, I'm sorry to hear that the Accutane didn't lead to a perfect "fix". I'm on my 2nd course and pretty sure that I'm in the same boat as you, or will be once I finish my course. Did you find that th...

Hi! Maybe I missed it but what have you tried? I found Dan's Regimen helped for me (didn't stop the cysts but anything that was more surface level, yes). I've got south-east asian skin so maybe it's ...

Note: So...I wish to have interactions with you. Ideally, lovely internet ones. I also started a blog about this, but obviously the forums are where it's at. Hence the repeating myself (I've paraphras...
