Umm....welcome to the club?!?! I was diagnosed with MP in 2014 after a bad fall on black ice. After being put on Prednisone for 6 months (that medication has it's own evils!), I went into remission until August 2017. Since August, I have been on Prednisone and Azathioprine (to settle my immune system down) and tamoxifen. I have definitely been battling to get back to remission, but it has been a tough road. Are you feeling any symptoms?

Last Sunday I was diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis and a supraumbilical midline hernia through CT scan! The ER doctor had to use Google to tell me what I had because nobody in the hospital has ever heard of it! So all I've been doing is reading up on it but still don't know what to do! The ER Dr told me I need a HUGE diet change from what she read. I've been complaining about stomach pain for so long with my Dr and told him I though I had a hernia and all he did was just give me meds for ulcers. I throw up all the time, I'm constantly so so bloated, I can't eat very much because I get full so fast or food makes me feel nauseated. It's been a rough road so far for so very long 😣
