Guest guest Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 I was wondering if the fact that I'm a carrier of Group B Strep would have any connection between the EN and Cellulitis, have you heard of this?

It is very possible to have a strep infection that will only show up with a blood test. Often a strep infection exists without a sore throat as well. > Feel free to invite your new doctor to our Group. > Our resources are at his disposal. > Love, > > > > > > > > > You can help Erythema Nodosum Research.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 Hi Jackie,From what I can gather both EN and Cellulitis are caused by Group A strep. infection.Group B strep. is fairly common, but probably not a cause of either EN or cellulitisAbout Strep I am not too familiar with Group B strep., so you should ask your doctor.Love, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
