    On accutane. Doc requires blood test. Will it show that im on cycle?

    He requires blood test 1 month after starting accutane at 40 mg ED to see how my liver reacts. Problem is that im already on week 3 of a test/equipoise cycle (ill be on week 7 when ill do the blood test).

    Im getting tested for:


    (hematology)
    FSC

    (biochemestry)
    Glucose

    (Enzymes)
    ALT
    AST
    GGT
    alcaline phosphatase

    Considering im only (i think...) getting tested for liver values and im on a non liver-toxic cycle, will my doc know that im on cycle upon receiving my blood work? i'd like to avoid having to tell him, for personal reasons.

    Your RBC should be highly elevated by week 7.

    Waaay back when I was a kid I had to go for blood tests for accutane, and it was the biggest waste of time in my life.

    Pretty sure they made me go every week for a while, and every time the tests showed nothing out of the ordinary.

    Yeah, the tests are just used as the the doctor must follow procedure. Nothing more, nothing less

    to answer your question No it will not show on your blood test unless your doc ask for your test level, which will definitely show that it's way up high.
