I see a lot of disability q&a due to the mental part of this, but reality is where mine appear it makes it impossible to drive, sit, or stand most of each month. I am currently without medical insurance but I hope I can prove a case once I am that my only jobs can be from home where I can lay or be in the best position for the current day or situation. Anyone else like this?

Looking for less invasive treatments like hair removal before getting on antibiotics or other drugs with side effects.

From what I can tell this effects woman more then men, however I have very severe HS and finding very few posts or advice from men, I have had the condition for nearly 20 years now and took over 10 years to diagnose. Are there any tips to deal with this differently as a male???

Had a doctor that just tried multiple treatments that got me worse and worse and some a little better but none actually truly worked. Felt kinda like a Guinea Pig. Anyone else felt that?

Scared

When I get one or two I can’t move my body literally shuts down and I need help just rolling over or going to the restroom

I heard, or read somewhere that having HS can be a reason some people qualify for disability benefits. Giving that it causes us to become more likely to develop mental illnesses associated with HS, like social anxiety disorder, depression and other mental illnesses. I currently have GAD, Social Anxiety and OCD

I have a new abscess it’s causing my body to have chills and feel weak
