Re: What have you been diagnosed with?

[feotakahari]

To some degree, I'm one of the lucky ones. There are three phases of hidradenitis, and since it's so little-known, most people get to phase three before it gets diagnosed, at which point it's almost impossible to treat. I was diagnosed in stage one, when just regular washing and some basic cleansing medicine can control it. I'm also in remission from Crohn's, though the medicine costs an arm and a leg even with insurance.

I write a lot of body horror in my stories--bodies filled with green goop, or crawling with live beetles, or warped into strange and inhuman shapes. At first, I didn't really consider why I wrote it, but it started not long after I was first diagnosed with Crohn's.

Then again, you've dealt with ulcerative colitis, so I can't be too woe-is-me. It and Crohn's are sometimes misdiagnosed for each other.

That's a relief, because I've seen someone with fairly advanced HS (arm pit) and I can't even imagine having to contend with that kind of constant pain.

And I do know the joys of the buring colon, but on the other hand Crohn's isn't treatable with a fairly simple surgical procedure so I feel you but I also kind of don't there. I hope your GI health continues to be manageable.

I agree though, there's something about chronic medical conditions that does attract one to the body horror genre.
