How many people have full time jobs ? I work 40 to 50 hours a week.
I read this post and wonder how people have time to do all this stuff and work full-time

I'm curious if anyone has had success controlling their HS with diet changes alone. What did you do? I've just finished a 2 week round of doxycycline with zero improvement, in fact it seemed to get worse. Ive had the same sore since Nov 2022. I was recently diagnosed and prescribed doxy at a walk in clinic, and my first dermatologist appointment is next week so I'll find out what my options are then I guess.

Omg my arms are another color bow from all the reacting to the tape. Hate tape!
