    Help w/ Doctor Visit

    Hey guys,

    I'm going to the doctor tomorrow to get a prescription for accutane (small dose, <30mg ed). I'm gonna tell him about AS, as I'll be starting a cycle end of January. Since I'll be on accutane, I'll have to get blood tests every month. I want to discuss with him a few specifics to look for in those tests related to AS (hopefully he'll already know). I've been looking around AR for advice, but am having trouble. What should I tell him to test for in addition to the accutane-related values?? I know AST and ALT indicate liver damage, so that's important. Also testosterone , progesterone, estradiol, blood pressure, red blood cell count.... Anything else you guys think I should specifically ask to get tested for?? Also, maybe getting tested for ALL this stuff EVERY month is overkill?? Anything else you think I should talk to him about?? Thanks for the help bro's, I appreciate it.
