I’ve been dealing with a condition for two years now. None of my doctors can diagnose it. It starts with a small red pimple and erupts into an open wound that burns, stings, stabbing pain. I can’t walk, stand, or anything. I’ve had three of them since March 2019. I just had my last surgery almost two weeks ago. I’ve had a skin graft, a panniculectomy, wound debridements, and parathyroid surgery. I still have no clue what this is and what could stop it.

    Hi @Shonshi41 that must be awful not knowing what courses are, hopefully the Drs can get to the bottom of it for you.

    Welcome to the community @Shonshi41 :) I'm sorry to hear that you haven't yet been able to get a diagnosis for your condition. 

    How did the latest surgery go? Could you be referred to any other specialists who could look into the condition?

    Just to let you know, I've renamed your post slightly and moved it into our category for discussions relating to undiagnosed and rare conditions.

    I just came from my surgeon and I’m scheduled for more surgery next week. The wound isn’t closing. I’m just staying positive that this surgery is successful. Unfortunately I very familiar with back to back surgeries.
