So I went to the derm today! The appointment was at 7:45 a.m. which sucked big time! But I guess I should get used to it with all these blood tests I'm going to have to do. Has anyone noticed that there are always a ton of old people in the waiting room? I always get nervous about not wearing any make-up to the appointment and when I get there all I see are 15 old geezers sitting around reading fishing magazines. It kinda creeps me out...
Anyways, once I finally got back there my derm gave the usual check-up questions and I anxiously reminded her that I was supposed to go on Accutane. She gave me a funny look and shook her head. She said, "No, I think we should try birth control first." No. I want Accutane! Was she on crack? After months of trying to persuade me to go on the drug and now she wants me to take birth control? After a few moments of persistently saying I wanted Accutane she finally agreed. So off into another room I went to fill out the oh so famous mound of IPLEDGE paperwork. After about an hour spent signing my name a zillion times, assuring over and over that I would not get pregnant, and looking at pictures of babies with cone heads, I was done with the dreaded paperwork.
Then I went to go get my blood taken for the pregnancy test. I actually kind of like it, it fascinates me to watch my blood pool into the vials. (Does that make me weird?)
So in a month I come back and get my blood taken again, then I can FINALLY begin! Yeesh....I hate all this waiting, I'm so impatient.
But guess what? I'm going to be on Accutane!
Ahh...it's music to my ears...
The war begins May 3. I bet they don't even know what's coming...lol
