To: erythema_nodosum_Group Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2012 3:33 PMSubject: Re: Spray On Skin Hi Luke,Glad to hear from you! Hope you are feeling better now. That article was interesting--and shows how new and better things are always just on the horizon if we can hold out. I had an EN flare up after a 4 yr remission but I'm nearly over it now. We have not heard much from our other PG members, so I hope everyone is doing well, and that "no news is good news".Love,>> Doea anyone know anything about a new 'Spray on Skin' treatment for ulcers?> There is an article here http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-19093302> It would seem that as a solution to cover PG ulcers or EN breakouts, even if it just acts as a barrier to bacteria whilst the skin under it is given a chance to heal, it may be possible to use this skin.> I have mentioned it to one dermatologist who hadnt heard of it and couldnt find much information about it.> Is it available on the NHS? Is it suitable for use with PG ulcers?> I've been having a few PG issues recently and have been in so much pain, I couldnt really do much for myself. My yahoo ID seems to have been disconnected but luckily a friend has let me use his account.> Ive recently ( last 2 weeks ) gone back to Cyclosporin and my doctor is looking into Thalidomide as a therapy, but it seems that its difficult to obtain. Id be interested in knpwing if anyone else has tried Thalidomide as a PG treatment and any side effectsor benefits they got from it.> > Glad to be back.> Luke> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
