Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 Hi Everyone, I found this info on Sarcoidosis and TB <<a patient with TB may be more susceptible to sarcoidosis. One may not have anything to do with the other except that if you have one, your body is defenseless against the other. >> Erythema nodosum is related to both Sarc. and TB, so there does seem to be a connection. I lived nextdoor to a man who had TB [and didn't take his meds on a regular basis]. Many of my family members and neighbors had TB when I was young too. They didn't even know it until many years later. I got the scratch test as an adult and I didn't show active TB, but always wondered if the early TB exposure "set me up" for EN. Love, Quote
