Edema comes from water retention and salt.
Lithium makes you bloat but so does valproate and
many other drugs.
I don't have acne fortunately, but my entire
skin "pits"--- one advantage is that you get
non-plastic surgery on your face-- you look about
10-20 yrs younger.

What to do -- i would ask the dr. if the dose
could be lowered. As for acne, try using baby
powder after your bath or shower.
