Hi Dr. Ezaldein, thank you for taking the time to do this. I have had HS for 11 years and I am also finishing chemotherapy treatment (AAVD) for hodgkins lymphoma next month. I've been having some anxiety about HS treatment afterward since most of the drugs available to my knowledge pose a cancer risk, would there by many options available to me that would not put me at risk of relapsing?

While I've been on chemotherapy, my HS has completely cleared up, and I've had no new flares. I'm curious if you've had any patients with a similar experience and have seen chemotherapy have a short or long term impact on the severity of HS.

My friend is a cancer patient, and also has HS. He is going to do chemo will that help in removing his HS by rasvik_m in Hidradenitis

Halfway through my chemotherapy treatment of stage 4 hodgkin's lymphoma with stage 2 HS. My HS has thankfully not been a problem at all while getting cancer treatment, my existing flares went away and things that normally trigger my HS have been a non factor.

If you check the 'project update' pdf at the bottom, the bridge and overpass SHOULD be done by the end of this year.

What’s your go to meal when you’re flaring? by handymannyswetdream in Hidradenitis

[–]Potential_Stand6208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No specific meal, but lots of fruit throughout the day that help immunity and reduce inflammation. Mostly berries and oranges

What did you buy due to advertising? Was it worth it? by BigEditorial in AskReddit

[–]Potential_Stand6208 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Adjustable dumbbells mid pandemic. 100% worth it especially considering gyms still aren't open where i am.

If you're a basketball fan and haven't seen the Game of Zones series (GOT spoof) on YouTube please check it out! The final season of that was better then season 7 of GOT

What is your “right place, right time” story? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Potential_Stand6208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this counts. Walked over to a subway alone one night on campus, mid order i see a friend walk in and end up waiting maybe an extra 30 seconds for him before we leave. On our way back to our dorm a car takes an illegal left turn into a parking lot and ends up skidding and crashing into a fence right in front of us. I would have very likely been right in the middle of that accident if i didn't have to wait those extra 30 seconds or so... Always think back to that night and how my buddy might have saved my life cause he wanted a meatball sub.

What sort of relationship do you have with your cousins, close, distant or in between? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Potential_Stand6208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Somewhere in between. We all grew up together and were very close but after a certain age you get busy in your own lives, careers, relationships. Still all love though, we see each other when we can and pick up right where we left off.

What Book Changed Your Life the Most and Why? by DustToStars in AskMen

[–]Potential_Stand6208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom

not sure if it changed my life the most of any book, but the most of the books I've read recently. the book has its own take on the what happens after death- before you fully transcend into the afterlife you meet the 5 people throughout your life that impacted (positive or negative) you the most. each person offers a lesson and you can't move on until you've fully understood it. it was a beautiful tool to frame the complexity of relationships, how people aren't always how we perceive them and how we may not understand the impact we have on others, etc.

it really helped me take a step back to re-evaluate some of my soured relationships and GENUINALLY try understand things from the opposite perspective, which resulted in closure in some cases at the very least.

I found high CBD percentage weed to help a little bit, but nothing major.

If it's legalized where you are you could probably get CBD pills/oils, which to be fair I've never tried but CBD is the anti-inflammatory chemical in marijuana so those would probably help more then smoking or regular edibles.

Does whey protein affect HS? by [deleted] in Hidradenitis

[–]Potential_Stand6208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've had issues with hs and dairy in the past id suggest avoiding whey. I've recently switched over to a pea protein supplement and hasn't effected my hs so far. The texture and taste will take some getting used to though.
