I'm going to the dermatologist this afternoon to pursue accutane. I'm 28 and have been dealing with acne since puberty. At this point and really all my life it has not affected my face much at all. I tend to get cystic acne on my neck and back. I'm not talking to a disgusting degree, but maybe one or two sore red bumps under the skin that take forever to go away. My back also gets acne as well, but its off and on and nothing too bad, but still at my age its impacting my life. I've been using Benzaclin/Tazorac/Doxycycline for a while now and doesn't seem to help much.
I've come to a point where its affecting my life too much to keep doing what I'm doing. I want it gone. I know accutane is no guarantee, but its the closest thing to a sure thing as one can get with acne. I'm looking to hear from people who've used it and the sides, results, etc... and even from those who've had family or friends use it. I just want reassurance i'm doing the right thing. Will it impact my life in the gym?
