Hello everyone out there in roacutane land,
21 weeks – or 5 months and 1 week….it certianly is draging on at the moment. I am finding it quite hard to remember to take the drug, maybe once a week i’ll forget 
I really wish I wasn’t as I want to have the best outcomes possible from this, however with the year starting to get buiser in the lead up to christmans my mind is very scattered.
My skin is going pretty well, no more big break outs 
but still the little ones round my chin and jaw that went away for a while but have come back with avengence. I wonder how much longer I’ll be on roacutane as last time I spoke with the derm she said to come back in jan and re-assess….hrm….. i kinda hope its all over soon – it’ll be interesting to see if the acne come back or not – I hope SO SO SO much that it doesn’t – like everoney else, life on roaccutane has its ups and downs, however not having acne while on the drug has been liberating! and i don’t say that lightly, I have so much more confidance and feel happy with my skin
I am starting to get achs and pains again…sore neck, sore knees – but I’ve come to accept this as par for the course, just didn’t think they would come back this far in. Ah well. So wrapping up – everythings going well…but slowly…just have to be patient.
Take care.
Catherine.
Hi Catherine,
Like you I am also guilty of forgetting my meds (not the roacc though – not yet anyway) for this reason I invested (£2 lol) in one of those tablet cases with days of the week on, I am comming up to my 4 week now and I havent missed a dose
. most chemist do these.
hope this has helped, Angela x
