OK so to say i got $&*#(*ed over would be an understatement with how out of control my acne got on my shoulders, it was soo bad at one point i couldnt lay on my side before i would go to bed. im talking penny sized bubbles waiting to burst some SICK shTI, so after seeing the Dermatologist, took a little longer than i shoulda got over there. i got prescribed minocycline and cipro. CIPRO they give to anthrax patients. i was to run the cipro first 2 weeks then continue with the minocycline 200mg ed, my acne has gone down tramendously if not its pretty much basically gone with a pimple here and there but NOTHINg compared to before. im trying to think what coulda caused this i was on my cycles for months and nothing no acne what soever if anything my skin got clearer then as soon as a incorporated NPP my skin started breaking out like crazy same thing happend last cycle when i ran deca. COULD i possibly be allergic to nandrolone?? also another question out of all antibiotics like tetra, mino, detra of the cycline family or any other recommendations do you think work best with acne?? kind of ironic how even tho i look great physically i get fucked over with this ugly looking acne my god now im gonna have to deal with thease purple looking scars all over my shoulders til they fade. i never want to get acne like that again!

anyone with input on how to prevent it anything please leave a post!

any other reccomendations in the antibiotic category, also alin have you ever experianced really bad scaring from acne?? and what did you do to clear it up, cause my dermotologist will hook it up if i ask her to. any prescription cremes good for scaring i heard hydrocortisone (SP??) 4% is good. any others?

as an antibiotic treatment.. i had the same reaction to sus and deca first cycle few years ago ,went to dermatoligist and started accutane. now i can run any kind of oil base and have no problems. after i would bench blood stains all through my shirt. accutane is harsh but worth it.. they check your blood monthly just to be safe. btw i was on test during treatment liver enzymes and cholestorol would always be perfect.

I had cystic acne when I was younger. I took accutane and it was a godsend. Worked wonders for me.

i dont wanna resort to accutane my derm doesnt believe in it as well, me too ejones, i would bleed through my shirt too when it was really bad its a lot better now. i was just wondering if antibiotics worked without the accutane.

I've heard good things about b5. about 8 to 10 grams a day. I just started and I will keep you posted on how it goes. it effects everyone differently. some claim that it even dried up oily skin even after stopping b5 usage. Only been on for 2 days and I occasionally get the shits.

I have done 5 grams of pantothenic acid (B5) for about a 2 month stretch and it really did help. I ran out while away on business and after about 2 weeks off my skin is now getting noticeably oilier... It is partly a genetic issue for me, but while on it it certainly helps.

yea if my memory serves me correctly it isnt good to mega dose vitamin b's, any guys on here have luck with the antibiotics minocycline i wont mind using it as long as it helps! so far so good, but it could be better.

seems the easiest thing to do is not run Deca. Plenty of other compounds to take it's place.

Accutane is a miracle drug, after 3 to 6 months of treatment your skin is incapable of producing the oil that causes acne and you are usually cured for life, I would highly recommend it. The chapped lips and dry nose is the hardest part to deal with and possible suicidal thoughts but they're more funny than anything LOL

sergovski

i dunno if your cured for life.

ok to give you an idea here is a pic of this hideous display on my shoulders and chest, does this look familiar to anyone or did i just get it REALLY BAD. can anyone share their experiances and comparison with how bad i got it.

sergovski

that pic is basically the 2 month after math, you could just imagine how bad it was 2 months ago, HOLY shit is the only way i can describe it

That's why I said "usually". Some people require a second treatment. Just because your Derm doesn't like accutane doesn't mean you shouldn't consider it because like I said it is a miricle drug for acne, the only problems are the dry skin, lips and nose plus possible suicidal thoughts which are more amusing than serious.

I know many people that have used accutane including myself with amazing results.

Oh and by the way that picture is disgusting. I hope it all clears up for you and those scars go away.

lol thank you capt obvious hahaha was your acne anywhere near that? WAS ANYONES??!?! im starting to think me running the 1g of test back when was NOT a good idea, but i still honestly think it was the deca that did this cause as soon i ran the nandrolone phenylprop BAM outta nowhere. what is everyones opinion think i can get clear skin back in 6 months to a year?

blackson

Mine was no where near as bad as that but I was left with quite a few purple scars like you were, they took several months to go away. Has your derm recommended anything to help speed up the process? I'm pretty sure that when the scar is purple it means that it will eventually fade away, when they're white you're fucked and they're there for life.

yea i think im going to go with chemical peels thats the best option and a lot of neosporin. btw blackson what year was it in your avatar where ronnie was like that 1996?

mine was just as bad, antibiotics helped but accutane cured. i had always battled acne and it got seriously worse when i started using gear. like i said cured!! dont let the sides scare ya bro. tren is by far more scary than accutane. no sides when i took accutane for 6 months except chaped lips and dry nostrils. i would go see another doctor more accutane experience. the only down fall is cant be exposed to full sun. good luck bro.

Actually that's the beauty of accutane, it does help smooth out your skin and remove scars.

Good luck with it! Make sure your Derm helps you out, accutane is seriously hardcore shit, it's gonna be a hard 6 months for you but it will be worth it.

blackson

Another bonus will be the monthly blood tests :D

how did you feel when you were on it for 6 months??

ohh man i hope my blood work doesnt get thrown off too much cause im on my cruise right now of 400mg eq EW and 200mg test EW. im also gonna wait til im off this little oral cycle of tren and hdrol til i run the accutane, doesn accutane have any liver toxicity??

Yes accutane is very liver toxic, even drinking a couple times a month on accutane will elevate your liver values. The test and eq shouldn't effect it, but you won't be able to use any orals.

I felt great because it cleared my skin up within the first month, but the chapped lips and dry skin were pretty bad and the worst was my nose drying out, I can't really describe what it was like but it sucked balls. It's funny after the first couple weeks your skin produces zero oil. My girlfriend has those little blue oil pad things that if you wipe on your forehead or nose they will turn see thru and take all the oil off, well when I wiped them on me nothing happened lol. It also kinda drys your joints out so a bit of deca on your cruise might not be a bad idea even though I know you think deca might have been the cause. Also you become more sensitive to light and burn easier, not a big deal though.

I've been gone a couple days but it seems like now your going to do the accutane. I second some of the things Blackson said. Dried me out. Don't drink alchohol while taking it. Stay out of the sun. I peeled over my entire body when I took it. Palms, soles of feet, even my balls. Never had any depression or thoughts of suicide. Was extremely glad to get rid of the cysts. Good luck brother:D:D:D
Oh yeah the peeling only lasted 5-7 days.

Holy shit bro. Myn wasn't close to that bad. I've ran plenty of cycles and took plenty of different steroids, but mastero is the only one that did this to me. I know it wasn't any other steroids because I took them in other cycles without masteron with minimal acne. I get acne on all me cycles, but only a bump here and there.

Deca breaks me out bad as well. I barely even had acne in HS. On deca my face and shoulders broke out horribly. I have a few acne scars on my face now from the deca :( atleast yours are on your shoulders!
