cystic acne?

Im 26 years old and i get these puple hard bumps under my skin.......1st it was one, now i have 3 on my left cheek......they have hard "rings" around them and are softer in the middle......they're huge and unsitely.......my doctor said it was cystic acne and referred me to a dermatoligist.....3 month waiting list!  Where is this coming from and why?  I had great skin till 2 years ago......now i have "hole" scars and various indentations on my cheeks and forehead.........no prescriptions have helped and clindamycin is now like putting water on my face.......Is accutane my only option?  It seems like the only hope I have ....but I cant stomach the side effects......I have a very stressful job and I know the side effects would make my life unmanageable........ANY SUGGESTIONS?
