Hidradenditis Supperativa

I live with Hidradenditis Supperative, which is an immune system related skin disorder where your body just goes "hey, you know what'd be fun? Sprouting abscesses in erogenous zones!" and then you have to live with that from puberty until death.

I'm going on humira for it but haven't started yet.

My dermatologist put me on antibiotics for some active sites, then called me today to say that it's the wrong antibiotics based on swabs they took. So I'm waiting for the right antibiotic prescription to be filled.

But hand to god the stuff they've got me on has stirred up a bunch of tender but inactive sites and now they're coming to a head and I have pain instead of tenderness. Which is fun. I'm hoping the new antibiotic takes care of them, as well as the previously active lesions

But honestly I don't have high hopes. Antibiotics don't do much for HS unless the abscess/lesion is infected by outside bacteria (which my active draining lesions are, hence the swab results). They aren't infections in an of themselves. They're the body overreacting to something and sprouting an abscess with nothing in it but dead white blood cells (pus) but no bacteria. So we'll see what happens.

At least it'll take care of the active lesions? I hope? Maybe?
