Guest guest Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Ken, I believe what you are referring to is Kaposi’s sarcoma. Cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma has been found in people that take corticosteroids and other drugs that suppress the immune system. If the biopsy comes back positive, they can freeze it off, probably the same way they did the nodule on the bottom of your foot. Try not to freak out to much. It is very possible that this lesion is an isolated case, hasn't spread and can be easily treated. I hope you get the results back soon so you can be at ease. Kaposi’s sarcoma- this site has pictures: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000661.htm Kaposi's sarcoma in rheumatoid arthritis. http://whttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi? cmd=Retrieve & db=PubMed & list_uids=3578338 & dopt=Abstractww.ncbi.nlm.nih.go v/entrez/query.fcgi? cmd=Retrieve & db=PubMed & list_uids=3578338 & dopt=Abstract Kaposi's sarcoma in two patients following low-dose corticosteroid treatment for rheumatological disease http://rheumatology.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/39/11/1294 Kaposi’s sarcoma: this site tells about the 4 types and treatment options http://www.healthatoz.com/healthatoz/Atoz/ency/kaposis_sarcoma.jsp a On Aug 10, 2005, at 11:12 AM, kenneth samuelsen wrote: > Greetings...yup, it'sa me again!

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Dear Ken, dog gone it anyway !, was hoping you would have something good happen. I wish doctors would not think out loud when examining us, I wish they'd wait until whatever it is they suspect is confirmed and they have a positive diagnoses. Sometimes I think they have conditioned themselves to remain neutral about emotional aspect of their patients way too well!! You got my prayers, God Bless, and wait for positive answers before totally freaking out, if it helps it would of freaked me out too ____________________________________________________ Start your day with - make it your home page http://www./r/hs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
