Hi Jodi,

My son is similar to yours, and also developed a bad case of acne since being diagnosed with SAA a year ago. It really sucked because the dermatologist couldn't do much but prescribe topical medicine until Eric was off the Prograf. His counts are good enough now so that he can take an antibiotic for it (doxycycline), it's helping a lot. We had to get the OK from his hematologist before the dermatologist would prescribe it.

Feel free to PM me if you'd like more info.

And so sorry you had to join the club, hopefully your son continues doing so well.
