Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Dear , You are on the right track. I am 60 years old and have had MS for many years, AND I had erythema nodosum when I was 18. I was told then that it was a complication of mononucleosis. I have since read (sorry I don't know where, but it wouldn't be hard to find) that in one study all people diagnosed with MS also test positive for mono. There are many interconnected things going on here. Good luck, and keep us posted.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 I was diagnosed with Erythema Nodosum 30 yrs ago at age 20. It went away after some injections from my GP at the time and never discussed again. I remember a bad strep throat before. Now I have MS? Never quite connected the two, but I guess there is a connection. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Kiki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Hi , Though my husband is the one inquiring about the LDN, I was diagnosed with EN in 93, EN is Latin for red bumps, mine ended up being blood clots. A "doctor" put me on prednisone which acted like draino in my veins, causing the loss of my right leg below the knee, left above the knee and my right index finger. DO NOT believe everything a doctor tells you, and never be afraid to tell them NO.
