[Guest guest]

Dear Jim,

On behalf of all our members, welcome to our Erythema Nodosum Group!

Thanks for sending in your Questionnaire. I have added the information

to our " Member Medical History " Files on the Group site and posted it

below.

You now have Full EN Group privileges.

You are receiving ALL EN Group emails, and you can also go to the EN

Group site whenever you like:

http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/erythema_nodosum_Group/

and logging on with your Yahoo ID and secret password.

You do not have to have the group emails delivered to be a member

here. Let me know if you prefer to have the emails stop and go to the

Group site instead.

We have several members with PG, and you will be happy to know that

Jeff is our resident PG expert. He also has Crohn's Disease and

several other disorders related to autoimmunity. His cnversations with

PG members is preserved in our PG Forum on our Group's Files Section.

Shane just joined as a " cured PG member " he used a Natural Treatment

that I am sure you will find interesting. You will find his story on

our Cured Member Files.

We have quieter PG members who don't post often, but I hope you will

hold your PG conversations on the Message Board so that we can all

learn from them. Other PG members are reading your posts, even if they

don't often post themselves.

Welcome to our Group!

Love,

****
