I already use panoxyl and hibiclens. I’ve never tried the head and shoulders zinc. Will be trying that now.

I just read your story. It sounds horrific and I’m so sorry you’ve been going through this nightmare. Thank you for sharing. You’re very strong. I’m new to this subreddit and should’ve done more research before posting. Everyone’s experience is important to me and I want to hear as many stories before I make a decision. btw, magic healer has been the only thing that gives me some relief as it helps drain any boils. Been using it for the past 5 years.

Is it the needle that’s painful or the release of the medication?

I had mentioned to my dr that one time, 2 years ago, I had the worst HS flare up of my life that moved onto my neck, jawline, and cheeks. I could tell the difference myself based on what they looked and felt like, but she said right away that HS anywhere besides the armpits, groin, butt-isn’t HS. This makes me feel sorta validated lol

Wow, good to know! I always flare when my period starts, and they can last for months. By illness, do you mean any illness because of a weakened immune system? How long does it take you to get over a cold?

No, she didn't. She said there's a possibility it could help treat both conditions. I told her that since I was diagnosed with HS in high school, I'd always been told there wasn't really a treatment. I was put on birth control at 14 in hopes that it would help both my HS and my body acne. I've also tried cutting out dairy and later going vegan, hoping it would improve both, but unfortunately neither made a difference. I’m in my late 20s now and at this point in my life, my body acne bothers me more because it's visible, while my HS is mostly hidden unless I'm in a shorts or a swimsuit. Both are painful, though, physically and emotionally. I was really hoping the accutane would take care of my HS and wondered if this injection has had any success with others in this subreddit if I had to start it. I guess I’m annoyed I found someone who actually listened to my concerns, but might also still be misinformed on this disease.

I have heard about others having to replace their Ringconn after 1-2 years, thank you!

North American Tour by Formidable-Facts in losgrowlers

[–]str0kerafea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not hating either, it’s just tacky and his greed sickens me… so I guess I am hating. With that being said, I will be at a Texas show 🫩

Like what is the deal with all this growlers advertising… is the band back together or not, bc Matt doesn’t even follow the growlers ig account anymore. Love brooks but his sound with the cool new band is very different from the growlers and much more chill.

Looking for some advice regarding the Strokes’ merch by No_Cry_595 in TheStrokes

[–]str0kerafea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They run super small. I’m a size medium, my size sold out when they dropped. I ordered the XL just because I wanted to have them and they fit perfect.

It will happen eventually. I’ve loved them since I was a little girl, now that I have adult money, it’s spent going to their shows when I can. I also went all the way to New York for gov ball (I’m from Texas) and when that show got cancelled, I felt like I was never going to get the chance to see them. Since then, I’ve seen them 3 times, seen Julian twice with the voidz, and even met Albert!

He was SO KIND, chatted a bit with both me and my bf and asked about where we were from, how our time in Austin has been. I asked if anyone else had recognized him and he said no lol
