    I don't think they run a testosterone test, unless your doctor knows you're on and wants to see you arrested. However, what they're looking for with an accutane test are things like cholesterol levels, which are affected by the drug. And, since you're on, your cholesterol levels will be through the roof, which may prevent your doc from prescribing. Running blood tests are expensive, so they don't just run the gauntlet for everyone's blood. Only what they need. Accutane doesn't affect testosterone levels , so I don't thing they would test for it. I don't know for sure though.

    Tetracycline sucks. when i took it, i really didn't see any results. There are too many limitations too. Two hours prior or after meals, not taken with dairy. Two times daily. Damn. Eating as much as you should makes this almost impossible. Try taking vitamin b. It helped me. You just have to take high doses. 10 grams ed for a week or two, then when the acne subides, just use a maintenance dose, at around 3-5grams ed. One thing ive been using lately that acctually has been working is deoderant. Just rub it ont the problem areas. Seems to dry them out an d clear up. here is the link to the thread that i got it from:

    There's lots of Vitamin B's bro... I'm assuming you mean B5?
