Welcome, New Member, T.L.Matoska's Son Henry/Case History

[Guest guest]

Dear T.L. and Henry,

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 NO receiving 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 are the second person with EN as a result of U.C. this week, and

" cska88 " , a 17 yr. old H.S. student with EN join just yesterday. Feel

free to discuss Both U.C. and EN on the message board. The medical

literature says that when the U.C. is in good control the EN will also

go into remission, so you may need to check with the gastro dr. to

see what you can do to resolve the EN problem. 8 months of an EN flare

up is a long time. Henry may also have another EN trigger besides the

U.C., and we'll help you explore that possability. Welcome to you both!

Love,

******
