Tomorrow I might get some answers

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

Sorry I have been absent and haven't replied to the number of helpful

posts in response to my first post. Life has been crazy and my

constant aching legs and exhaustion aren't helping. Anyway, since I

last posted I had a biopsy which confirmed erythema nodosum...um

several needles into a fresh bump not good....not good. In addition

to my diagnosis I have a nice scar from the biopsy to go with it

At this point, I don't think my legs could look worse so I don't even

care. My derm also sent me for a TON of blood tests, I got the call

this morning to make a follow up appt. I was told it could take weeks

for results, so getting the call this morning was slightly unnerving.

I of course, could not get the doctor on the phone to just say if

things were okay, so I moved my late appt to tomorrow. I am concerned

that all the tests are not complete but something came back a red flag

and he wants to see me earlier. I am probably just being paranoid,

but he went from saying give me 3 weeks to get all the results to one

week later come in for a follow up. Who knows. I guess I will find

out tomorrow.

When I was there last week, my bumps looked bruised and the doctor

felt that my quitting the gym and any extra exercise as well as the

compression bandages were helping, but they look just as bad now. I

have a big one on the top of my foot that is in the worst spot ever

and hasn't subsided. I feel like stopping the gym and the other

remedies only provided very fleeting relief and I am back where I

started, but tomorrow maybe I will know.

That's my story, I will try and post the results tomorrow after the

appt. Thanks everyone for the support and info.
