Day 83 A couple cysts on face, another big cyst growing on chest... lips are extremely peely. Also the dry eczema / rash thing on the back of my hands has become more severe. I've started putting Lub...

Day 81 Breaking out still... got some cyst-type ones on my face, and one on my back, an area that has been relatively clean for a while. Super-dry overall... mad flakes in hair, and been getting ecze...

I haven't finished my course (in my 3rd month atm) but I'd just like to say that Accutane affects people in so many different ways that in the end, the decision can only be between you and your dermat...

Day 75 Back is getting noticeably smoother again after a slight breakout following the dose increase. New breakouts are still minimal to nonexistant. I did forget to mention that I got a huge cyst o...

Day 74 I think, 10 or so days into 60mg, my breakout from the increased dosage might be coming to an end. Old pimples are calming down and few, if any, new ones are coming up (if there are new ones, ...

Day 71 Breakin' out still... maybe not as rapido but still breaking out. Trying not to think about it at the moment. In about two or three weeks I'll be starting a new internship though, so I wish th...

Day 69 The headaches and stomach aches gave gone away. Got sore throat / cough but there's absolutely NO way that's accutane related. I am pissed off though, because I'm still breaking out pretty ba...

Day 67 So this is my fourth day on 60mg. I'm taking Claravis now instead of Zenatane... two 30mg pills a day. I take them both at once instead of spaced out. Acne-wise, I've had a couple new promine...

Day 63 My bloodwork was fine! Should hopefully be getting my pills today or tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Day 62 Had my end-of-2nd-month appointment with the derm today. She's upping my dosage to 60mg, and also said that 60 won't necessarily be my maximum. Had my blood taken right after. Will know the re...

Day 57 Old breakouts have calmed down somewhat and new breakouts have been a little more controlled. I feel much better about my skin at the moment than I did at the beginning of the week.

Day 52 Whoa, the days are going by really fast now. I guess I've just been busier. Anyway, still breaking out everywhere. All kinds of acne too, from big deep cysts to tiny little whiteheads. Can't ...

Day 48 Breaking out. Lots of cysts and pustules. Skin is red, easily irritated and peely. Back is still doing ok but far from perfect.

I'm in the same boat... my IB seems to be over, but I'm still breaking out. Although I have to say, my back feels pretty smooth at this point! Like, I have a couple tiny pimples that you can barely fe...

Day 46 Had some kind of strange stomach / lower abdominal pain late yesterday evening. It went away within a couple hours though. I think it may have had something to do with dehydration, as I've rea...

Day 45 Same old... a couple new-ish ones, but mostly just older stuff taking its time to push out. My face has been kind of shiny recently, and I honestly can't tell if it's oil or just moisturizer....

  As a side note, a red ring has developed around the area where last night's pimple was. A red, raised ring. It looks like ringworm. No idea where it came from... I'm so cheesed off though,...

Hey I'm about to finish up my second month. Since the start of accutane, my skin has stopped being super oily and it looks more civilized. I'm still getting whiteheads here and there, but they are muc...

Day 40 Breakin' out... big old cyst on my forehead... the older stuff is looking a bit calmer. The one new area that's bothering me is right below my lower lip... a big massive pustule formed and was...

Day 38 The ones from yesterday look maybe 10% calmer, but unfortunately got some new ones coming in as well. Everything causes a LOT of redness, even the really small ones.

Day 37 Look and feel pretty horrible at the moment. They are just a couple cysts, between nose / cheeks on either side, but they are SO large, red, unsightly and painful. Also couldn't resist the urg...

Day 35 I'd say my face looks worse than it has in a while. Got some new pimpletons; a couple red ones on my left forehead, a painful one right between my nostrils of all places, a small but REALLY re...

definately not in the mood now a days.. i think im breaking out from the moisturizer im using, it makes my face look so oily and and it says non oily and non condemogenic.. lol going to the dermatolog...

Day 34 Well... although they told me my accutane would only be ready Friday... I called today and they had it! So I stopped by in the afternoon, picked it up, and took my first 40mg pill a couple hou...

Day 33 Haven't gotten new pills, nor do I even know the results of my bloodwork yet. Bloodwork was Friday, last pill I took was Sunday. Still breaking out of course, but nothing too crazy. Pimples a...
