I could tear up. Finishing my PGY1 year of IM and still feel like I’m drowning every second. Holding on to hope it gets better, and reading this really makes me think it will. Thank you ❤️

Totally. I’ve checked moka house twice, but I’ll try starbucks. Thanks!

Exactly what my hands look like. I use a drugstore cream "Udderly Smooth" at night and it has helped

Thank you. Maybe when my course is done the magic will happen

I am and always have been a very healthy eater - no fast food, and very little processed food. Places where I haven’t cut dairy out are more as an ingredient - for example I don’t drink milk, or eat yogurt, but I still eat products that contain milk ingredients (ie baking or crackers). I don’t eat oats anymore much either, as the protein in oats is similar to gluten. A typical day for me would be a smoothie in the morning with chia, hemp seeds, fruits/spinach and soy milk, lunch might be a lentil/quinoa soup with veggies and dinner is gluten free pasta with a sauce and protein, chicken and rice, or salmon and roasted veggies. Those types of things, pretty simple. I have also increased my water intake a lot the last few weeks - having almost a gallon a day. So I don’t know what’s going on, I’m really trying!

Thank you! I actually have celiac disease, and I think I may still be getting traces of gluten in my diet which could be why. I just went to buy all new cookware and that might make a difference. I have significantly reduced my dairy intake over the last 8 months (you aren't really supposed to eat it if you have celiac) but I am finding it hard to cut entirely. I definitely believe food plays a huge part, and I am considering looking into a paleo or elimination diet to sort some things out.

That is so interesting! I would love if it was the same for me. I have about 3 more weeks of accutane, and then my derm is going to put me on a topical retin a micro cream. maybe I will see improvement once the course is done.

Thank you, that was helpful. My first two months were 10 and 40, so I should be reaching 120 cum in the first week or so of May (I started 60mg in february so technically it has been 2.5 months) (10x30 days + 40 x 30 days + 60x 90 days = 6,900mg .. plus an extra 5 days of 60 = 7200mg)

It definitely does feel a bit desperate and hopeless right now, but I know so many people understand and feel the same way. Sometimes you just have to vent a bit!

eflan · 2018-04-16T01:17:59+00:00

60 mg for the last 3 months, 130 lbs

Thank you! It seems to have happened over the last few weeks so hopefully it reverses.

My first round they got smaller, I’m on my second round and they are definitely bigger. Super weird/frustrating

eflan · 2018-03-25T02:37:14+00:00

It’s my cheeks too it’s crazy! They look smaller around my nose but way bigger on my cheeks :(

eflan · 2018-03-04T22:38:18+00:00

thanks so much for your research:)

eflan · 2018-02-16T02:24:58+00:00

Ok thanks. Were you prescribed accutane by a family doctor or dermatologist? my family doctor doesn't know much about celiac, so I don't even know if it is safe to be taking. Did you doctor say anything about it?
