I was diagnosed with this disease but in my case its far more severe, almost 90% of my body affected. Now I'm writing a case report about it

[@Hoekim.madafaka]

Same with me! What caused it!?

[@dk11soccer]

My daughter had it...not enough information is out there on it. Scared the crap out of me.

[@tunasfishtank]

[@lillyrocks2011]

Could you talk about long bones ache/pain? How to distinguish when is autoimmune, cancer, infectious, ... Thank you ❤️

[@samgaming5215]

Many thanks for this excellent video. I would just add re the underlying aetiology- sure, it is usually infection or drug related, but you can also get erythema multiforme as part of collagen vascular disorders, malignancies and multiple myeloma too.

As someone who has been diagnosed with erythema multiforme I would like to say that this has made me have more of an understanding of my diagnosis, I also take a medication called famcyclovior (im not sure how to spell it) ans it's basically acyclovir but different, I'm not sure how to properly explain it without giving false information but, thank you for this video.

[@osmosis]

We're glad that this video helped 🙏🏼

I had a biopsy done and it said EM, but I dont seem to follow the typical pattern of EM.. hands & feet are not involved. Face, eyes, lips, and small areas on trunk. Is there more information to find regarding EM Major, specifically?

[@dahuo8241]

No mention that it can be triggered by some vaccines? Or did I miss where you mentioned it?

[@angelahampton5730]
