Erythema Nodosum Posted: 11-03-03 12:03pm
My sister is diabetic and has allot of big
red/bruising spots on both of her legs and
thighs. Doctors are testing her for every
kind of cancer there is. But they do
suspect erythema nodosum. Does anyone
know anything about this stuff?

Christina I am doing some research on this
as well. I have found that TB can be a
cause, so you may want to have her checked
for TB. My niece has the same problem and
it has the doctors stunned since she is
other wise healthy. She failed to tell
them that she tested positive for Tb
several years ago. It may help, in alot
of unnecessary tests and medical costs.
Good luck.
