Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 My name is Kelley - I reside in Orlando fl. male 39 years old. I am currently suffering from my third bout of EN. The first instance was 2 years ago and doctor misdiagnosed me at that time treating me from everything from Lime disease to cellulitis. Last year in the same month (JULY) i had a second eruption. This one lasted a very short time and wasnt that severe - So I never went to the doctor for it - This year again in the month of JULY - It came back (with a vengence) It has been 5 weeks now and it seems every time it starts to clear up it begins again only WORSE! THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST IT HAS EVER BEEN. Thankfully my doctor correctly diagnosed it this time! I am simply taking ibuprofin as the naproxin prescribed for me was not helping. I have no choice but to puash forward daily and go to work! I have no health insurance and further test at this time seem unaffordable. I HAVE definatly noticed it seems to get worse when I get hot or stressed out! Therefor I am trying to stay as calm as possible. Wanted to say - By joining this group, I have found out more information that has helped me understand and cope than anything the doctor has offered in information. I appreciate the fact that I now can connect with others who are suffering from the same thing! Right now my right leg looks terrible but is starting to "purple" so I am hopeful that this is the cycle starting to subside. I will keep you updated with my progess. Thanks again - RICHARD KELLEY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
