I agree completely with this. Even though I just bitched about it somewhat in
this thread, I still 100% think it is worth it to stick it out. I wish I had, because now I'd probably be even more improved than I got with only taking 2/3s of my total dose.
Go for the Accutane, but make sure you go to all the monthly blood tests and whatnot so they can keep an eye on your liver functions. After my first month they had to back me down to less at a time and a little longer time frame because my liver functions spiked, but everything went down to normal after that. Unfortunately now in college I've started a whole different assault on my liver, but thats a whole different thread!
As for specific advice about the libs drying up advice, i just tried anything under the sun that was chapstick-like but mostly to no avail. Just keep trying different things, something should work eventually.
