Welcome, New Member Yenny/Case History

[Guest guest]

Dear yenny,

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.

It's a pleasure to welcome another " International Member " . You have

every right to be disappointed. But you will also learn how to deal

with EN and look for it's many triggers. I am impressed that your GP

could identify EN. So many of us are misdiagnosed for years. It is

hard to predict if you will ever get EN again after this bout. Only

time will tell. Making sure you are in a strong remission as easing

into activity might help to avoid a relapse. I'm glad to know you are

resting.

Welcome to our Friendly Group!

Love,

******

to join this group.

I had the flu last week and had all weird red and

painfull bumps on my schin and i thought it was nettle

rash. But it appeared to be different, when by last

thursday it got worse i decided to go to the gp on

saturday and he told me it is EN. I never heard of it

before esp because where i live it is very rural and

only once a year someone comes to hospital and en gets

dicovered. i wanted to know more about it about the

curing process and points where i should be very

severe with and stuff. What i read here makes me a

little dissapointed I hope that it is only for once

because it is a virus developed out of the flu

apperantely.
