I think you're right in regards to 'that time of the month' because this week its a fair bit better. probably just hormones and stress! yeah 7 months, plus i’ve got another 4 months to go! i’m only on 20mg – thats all i’ve even been on, so i think my derm is going with the slow and steady approach!

I've only been to see her 3 times, both basically to get a script for R. I guess it helps that I work at the pathology place I get my bloods done at - so I can check my own liver function etc. I'm not on the pill - but I'm gay, so accidently getting preggers really isn't gonna hapen to me, but I do understnad dermatologist being very cautios about handing it out for a long time if that is a possibility. mmm it does seem that every derm has a different idea about it.

I will ask my derm next time. I am clear and have been for nearly 2 weeks so goin well, I took R 8 years ago so know it works but was on a high dosage for only 4 months, so it will take me forever to reach my C.dose this way! Do you not have to go back to the derm for 4 months now? Thats a long time! Are you on the pill toom if you dont mind me asking?
