a new comer suffering from EN, in need of HELP

[Guest guest]

Dear group,

I am happy to join this group and I hope talking with people who are

suffering from the same strange thing could help me relieve anxiety.

I had a bad cold a terrible sore throat and fever in early Dec. last

year and I was diagnosed to have had EN one week after I recovered

from sore throat. I had never heard of EN until then. I was so

worried. Then while I was recovering was in my 5th week of EN, I got

another sore throat (I caught this cold almost for no reason, I find

myself so fragile now) and I've got a new round of EN! It's even

more serious than the last one. My two knees are so swollen so hurt

I even can't see my knees. I was taking IBuprofen and have just just

changed to Dicloflex. I try to rest more, but some time I can't

avoid walking (at lesst in my room) a bit. MY legs get very swollen

especially in the afternoon and evening and those red spots get very

hurt.

I wonder if anyone could tell me if it's ture that this desease

won't affect the inner organs. Is it that it would recure so easily?

Can I really recover by just lying in bed?

Any advice, any experience sharting would be very helpful to me.

Thanks!

Yan
