I love your positive attitude! EMPD I was misdiagnosed for 6 years by multiple gynecologists and dermatologists who prescribed steroid creams snd/or herpes medication. 2021 a biopsy revealed EMPD. Surgery was easy, no pain afterwards and fast healing. Although doctors thought it was non-invasive, it was not to be. One month later it had spread to my lymph nodes.

Oh no. How are you doing now? I’m so sorry to read that it’s spread. I’ve read EMPD is often misdiagnosed ~ but for 6 years? That’s terrible. I’m sending you good thoughts and I appreciate your comment.
