Hi everyone,
I am on my second round of accutane and so far everything is going great except for I am experiencing quite a bit of pain. The pain occurs in my lower back, and in my joints. I am also getting a lot of pain around my chest and rib cage...it feels as though the inside of my body is bruised. I had these symptoms last time and they went away as soon as I stopped the medication. They may be a tad more severe this time, so I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I do know one thing..I'm definitely not going to stop taking this!
 
I had the same experience with Accutane. All I could do is take Aleve and give my body more rest throughout the day.
 
i went off accutane almost a year ago and those symptoms went away mostly about 2 months after i stopped taking it. When i used to relax my back when i laid in bed, it would hurt severly for a couple of seconRAB then stop, and sometimes, this long after ive stopped taking it, i'll lay down to sleep and relax my back and i'll feel that stitch of pain in my lower back, only like once every month or two though. But yea it goes away mostly
 
When I was on accutane, my legs were stiff, slow and became tired/sore very easily - I had to stop sports after about a month or 2.
 
Im on accutane it def hurts your bones and joints...... just like the person said when u lay down or take the pressure off your back it has this weird pain.... I also stopped playin sports because the lack of energy and joints couldnt take it no more..........
