Hi
Does anyone have any experiences of Roaccutane? I’ve had mild sometimes moderate acne on and off since I was about 24 nearly 30 now.
Have tried all sorts of treatments over the counter and prescribed currently
been on Epiduo for 8 weeks now and lymeycycline seemed to be clearing first few weeks but not anymore. Acne is on my chin and jaw line only.. I have PCOS
I feel so concious about my skin wouldn’t want anyone to see my without make up on and i am seriously considering Roaccutane.
I’m worried about the side effects especially the MH ones.. I live alone and read something about you should have someone around to check on you?? I suffer with anxiety had a brief episode with depression when I was around 23 but not since.
Think I can deal with the dry skin aspect however I have dermatitis on my scalp and other areas of my body so worried this will get worse.
Also may sound silly but can you drink alcohol ? My 30th is coming up and also with the festive season etc And ideally wouldn’t want to not be able to drink at all.
