"I am currently using Efudex for the second time.  My first experience was 11 years ago.  The issues were exactly as shared by many others.  I was a mess!  It is very mentally challenging to go through this, but I can assure you it is very much worth making the commitment to complete a full course of therapy.  It was absolutely amazing how clear, smooth, and clean my face looked about a month after stopping treatment (I used a topical steriod afterwards).  People actually thought I had some plastic surgery (face lift?).  I am at it again, just having completed my first week.  While I remain self-conscious about how bad I look, it bothers me much less because I know the outcome will be well worth it.  Hang in there!"
