This hole thing is a journey and you have to find out what works for you because the Dr.s don't know. The main thing is being good to yourself and what makes you better. Take care

I take antibiotics no less than 2 weeks after that I feel like it’s not working like it did it the beginning, because now my body is used to taking the meds.

Antibiotics do not work. Don't take them. You would be better off by soaking the area in hot water and using either hot or cold compresses and keeping it covered

2 weeks of antibiotics didn’t help me with flares. In my experience, they never stop the onset of a flare and to me, that is the whole goal, to stop it from flaring.
