I agree - don't hold back from your doctor. Tell him or her all of your concerns and that you think it's from you taking oral isotretinoin. I don't know of any specific tests to ask for other than the...

Another friendly reminder to read the original post. The posts that are visible are from members that have finished a course(s) of Accutane.

I've bumped the Accutane Debate Thread. If anyone wants to debate Accutane itself, take the argument over there and keep within the Board Rules, please. THIS thread is for discussing hair loss induced...

Oh man, tattoos are permanent! It's not something you can remove because it didn't heal/still hurt. 5 more months is really worth the wait vs. the potential hassle of having a screwed up piece of perm...

rentstuff, if you've found information that can be helpful then that's great. If others don't agree with you or call you out for breaking board rules, that doesn't mean you can flame them and start ca...

i'm thinking of trying Retin-A for wrinkles, but im worried because Accutane obviously really dried up my face. Also, I have rosacea-like symptoms now (althought im taking Plaquenil which reduces so...

I like her hair color. Looks good!

WOW. It is crazy how many of these personal things people are dealing with, I am dealing with the same things.   You know its bad when.... your girlfriend your in love with wants to see you so ba...

DavidWong, some folks do get acne on the face as well as the back, but the back scarred. Or the opposite, the face scarred and not the back. Or both scarred. Or neither.

It's been 1 year and 8 months. I still get the occassional hormonal pimple (maybe one every couple of months), but other than that I've been acne free.

kls2323, I honestly don't think coffee makes or breaks the results. This drug is sooooo slow working. Some folks do clear up right away, but that's not the majority (of the people that have posted on ...

Haha! I was up to 5 cups a day, but have been able to cut it back to 3 by throwing in some herbal tea. It's so hard though 'cause coffee rocks.

It won't matter. I inhale coffee all day, every day and it didn't effect the course at all. Not sure about the vitamins though seeing as I don't take suppliments. Hope somebody can answer that for you...

Yes. I had a huge problem going into month 4. I resorted to using post-it notes as reminders because I was forgetting things that I do on a regular basis at work (reports due on certain days, password...

aprilmay, keep on keepin' on. I know it's hard right now, but you'll see. Retin-a takes a long time to kick in 100%, but it's so worth it once you start reaping the full benefits. Bad girl though. Don...

Yes. Moisturize everything on your face. Even your eyelids.

I did not take Accutane until I was 31 and noticed fine lines at 25. I was a total mega-producing oil factory then. You could name a bottled brand after me. It was gross!   Yes, there's no doubt...

Proteins are fine.

How about some strawberries? Kiwis and strawberries taste pretty good together.

I found this after a quick (2 seconds) Google using keywords: petroleum jelly vapors respiratory problems. In a nutshell, don't use petroleum jelly around the nostrils long-term if you think it can c...

If I remember correctly, not only are these on the nose and chin, but also in the creases between the nostrils and upper lip.

Oh wow! I've had these all of my life and never knew there was a term for it. I mean, I've heard of floaters, but to see the actual picture made me gasp. I thought everyone had these. Learn something ...

^Really??? Hmmm, I may have to have this - I'm all about achieving a hair style without really doing anything I'm with you. I hate hair styling! I'll do my best to get in some before and after pics...
