firefly's 2nd accutane treatment
firefly_gal replied to firefly_gal's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logs
DAY 11 i think prednisone didn't do much on me, it's the fish oil that did better, i'll keep observing.. today is my students' graduation day and i really hate my acne problem today.. the venue was full of sunlight and i was so ashamed to meet the parents.. just a few parents i met backstage.. i wanted to go out to the stage and do farewell but the sunlight makes my acne seems like i'm having a chicken pox or measle only on my face, it exacerbates my acne! so i didn't dare... i missed it so s -

firefly_gal replied to stephie11's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logs
happy anniversary! hey steph i've just seen your new pics, u look gorgeous! and yeah we really have to avoid sunburn while in tane, as i live in tropical country, i always bring something to cover my face from the sun... did you bring umbrella or super big hat? -

firefly_gal replied to firefly_gal's topic in Accutane (isotretinoin) logs
cece,yeah i still don't know why it came back. but here where i live, it's the most usual to put tane on 10mg, they don't sell it at 40mg or higher here... and i don't know if people with low does will surely get the acne come back or not... but maybe low doses do need a second course, too bad i didn't realize earlier that i might need tane... and thank you for your kind words you're on fish oil 2grams daily too?? anyway DAY 10 Thanks God, i really do thank Him. mine is like getting better. -
hi rose, remember we have to be super patient while taking accutane.. i'm also stressing myself out cuz i've got a deadline to accomplish with clear face and this tane 'seems' not working.. we should give it some time tho... good luck girl

cece, thanks for the uplifting words yes i'm relying on God too to clear up my acne for good.. He's the Doctor of all doctors, isn't He smileee..

DAY 9 one said that my skin has SLIGHTLY improved compared to 1 week ago.. today, starting 2g Blackmores anti-inflammatory FISH OIL. tomorrow, starting prednisone.. --------- 19 days to go : pre-wedding photo-------------- -
hi shelley, so this prednisone has been reacting really good then? my derm prescribes me prednisone for 7 days, lower dose on the 6th and 7th day; since i'm going to have my pre-wedding photo in a few weeks, i'm so stressed out! this prednisone should work overnight rite? i don't expect that this prednisone will clear me asap but i JUST hope on my pre-wed day, my skin is calmer..

nikki thanks for the kind words yeah i'm trying not to be sooo stressful about this and stay cool. as i work in a school, you know i have to meet many parents daily and i hate it when they stare at my acne after i put on retin-a... they didn't say anything, it's just the STARE... annasui, i was on doxycycline for quite a long term and it also didn't help much.. both topical and oral anti-bio only hold down my acne, not curing it.. DAY 7: since yesterday, started to apply Wynne's advice, put
