Anyone got HS

[seraphin]

Ive been diagnosed as having a skin disorder called HS, feeling really down about it, does anyone else have it and if so any advise.

Ive been given hydocortisone cream and a retinoid lotion.

Thanks in advance

Hi there :)

Yep I also have HS, lucky me lol

I've had it for 12 years and as far as I'm aware there is no cure for it :(

You have my full sympathy as it is a painful (and embarrassing!) condition.

Have a look at this site
http://www.hs-usa.org/hidradenitis_suppurativa.htm for factual info,

and this one
http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/hs_sucks/dswmedia/index.htm which is a bit more tongue in cheek and humourous :)

Feel free to PM me if you need any moral support :)

or maybe we could start a moral support thread on here :)
