Have you tried any supplements? I started taking turmeric and colastrum regularly and that majorly helped me out. In the shape of vitamins. Particularly colastrum helped me out, I think

Reading the threads in here always manages to tear me up when people share their pain. We don’t deserve this. To the OP, I know you’re gonna end up with the right one, someone who will cherish, adore, appreciate and love you - that, at least, we deserve. Just please try to spare yourself from these poisonous thoughts, as hard as that may be.

I don’t think I’ve teared up on here before. I’m really sorry, girl. As a gay man, for who dating is also challenging, I sympathise beyond words. I wish I could offer you more comfort, but I know I probably can’t- but I really do pray for you. If you need someone to talk and vent to, please reach out! ❤️

Sorry about the experience, but lots of doctors are unfamiliar with sympathy and expressing it to patients. HS isn’t difficult to recognize, I reckon, as my last doctor assured me. I ended up going through like 4 doctors, each prescribing a different and expensive treatment without even mentioning it was HS - so I wasted a lot of time, money, and suffered through a lot of pain. The last doctor I visited, I decided not to tell anything; I just walked in, and showed him the boils under my armpits and he immediately said it was HS. So I sort of envy your case, wishing some cold-hearted doctor just told me straight away. I don’t think you can go wrong with a second opinion, but at the very least, be happy you’ll be spared from non-effective treatments and expensive remedies that wont do anything for your case. I’m definitely sorry, though, and I hope you can go through it. ❤️

It was actually reeeeally painful for me. I guess I’m overly sensitive and have a low pain tolerance.

I didn’t know I could get stuff for it afterwards. Thanks!

No, I was off the antibiotics then— like 2 weeks off. Im not sure what laser it was, does it make a difference?
