I had been taking accutane for 4 weeks and then on the 5th week I experienced extreme leg pain so I wen to the doctor and found out I had deep vein thrombosis. I did have surgery on my foot, which is the same leg that I have the dvt, 2 1/2 months prior, so the doctor isn't sure what caused it. He says he doesn't think continuing to take the accutane can cause anymore harm while on blood thinners, but it could after I stop the blood thinners. Should I just stop? Or is the damage already done?
