I truly hate HS. The doctor who had to cut me open today was super nice, very caring and unbelievable understanding. My experience with doctors dealing with this disease has been less than stellar. Most used make you feel like a dirty disgusting freak because they used to be so uninformed and uneducated. The knowledge of this disease is relatively new. But I had the worst flare I have ever had and had no choice. My body was attacking me with a vengeance. I had four golf ball sized abscesses that formed on the back of my left thigh, all within two days with cellulitis to the point I couldn't even sit. She opened them up and only one had any kind of infection and only slight. It was all full of plasma and had nowhere to go so it was all just pooling in the cluster that had developed. She opened them and there was instant relief. You ever have someone cut on you and cause you to feel relief?!!! That's bizarre. Now I am off til Wednesday so I can give the area sometime to heal up and the cellulitis to come back down.

If any of you suffers from this disease, I see you. I am so sorry and I understand completely. If you ever need a place to talk about it, I am open to discussing the things that help to keep me in remission and flares at a minimum, as well as how to treat the symptoms once you do have a flare. It's hard doing these things alone.
