miracle cures for acne?

well roaccutane (oratane) definitely isn't one...
you have to be patient, very patient, for it to work.
so hopefully the results will be worth it.

i was at the doctors this morning, and he seemed at a loss to what to do because i still keep getting fresh acne, while the existing ones are still pretty bad.
he wanted to put me on the pill as well to speed up the process, but then he thought about it and said maybe we should just wait for the medication to take effect.

i've also been getting nosebleeds and puffy, swollen fingers :S
but i'm not sure if that's because of the medication or not...

oh, and another thing that you all might find useful;
the lady receptionist told me to:
- not eat beef
- drink lots of water (duh)
- drink chinese herbal medicine, apparently green tea will make it worse
- not consume soy sauce

i don't really believe in green tea making it worse, and i'm definitely NOT torturing my tastebuds with the chinese herbal teas, but it won't hurt to cut down on beef or soy sauce :)
