Hello Everyone,

I hope you are all well.

A few years ago Christina sent an email to some of us, requesting each person fill out a Camurati Engelmanns Disease questionaire she had compiled. The results were very interesting. Perhaps it is time that we do this again, except as a blog with members adding their answers. We can include questions such as:

1. The age of your CED diagnosis?
2. Has CED occured in your family previously?
3. Where is the pain in your body?
4. What are your symptoms?
5. What triggers a flareup, or causes you more pain?
6. What treatments help you?
7. What medications haven't helped you?
8. Have you had your CED gene tested? Etc.

I still have a copy of the original email. Perhaps we could show the completed questionaire to our doctors. It would also be very helpful for if you wanted to quickly find out if anyone has had a problem with a new medication, trial a different treatment (such as heat therapy), or check if others have a similar symptom. What do you think?

Take care everyone, talk to you soon.

        Hi
        I haven't visited Tribe for ages, I can't believe how many new members there are! I promise to catch everyone up soon. I have had quite a bit of pain in my ribs for a while now but the doctors never really said if it was the CED causing the pain. About a month ago I found a big lump on my rib so I'd say its definitely the CED, my GP thinks its bone thickening but I have an appointment with my specialist this month and I'll let him take a look. I'll let you know what happens.....

        Cheers, Dairne

    Hey,

    Thanks to everyone for their quick responses. I will collate all of the questionaires over the holidays (2 weeks time), plus add in medical links or info about the all of the medications that each person has listed. I will then put all of our answers together under certain headings and post the entire thing as a 'friends only' blog for you to print off or save to your computer, that way it can be updated or added to regularly. I will also email the final copy to all of you individually. Thanks again, take care,

    Loz
