Heeeeey, god its so nice to read about others that have this..
sorry i'm a bit late in joining
I looked on other diabetic forums and found nothing!, no one had heard of it
So story exactly the same as most.
Bl**dy inset bite, both shins, twice on each.
never healed properly turned to red scars.
dx'd diabetic 12 months later, that was 2 yrs ago
Derm DR was completely baffled by what it was, i did my own research and took it to show HIM.
Totally gutted, in 3 yrs they have grown from 5pence size to merging together to the size of my hand.
HATE THEM HATE THEM!!!
Cry lots, boyfriend tries to cheer me up by telling me no one notices, no one is looking at them, but i can see them, i notice them.
Cry lots when i bang them lol
Like winter as i cover up, hate summer! (no dresses for me)
Have tried Healan Tape, it seemed to make it worse.
Had the steroid injection, now just have a huge scar on top of one of them now. grrrrrr
They are growing it looks like, none stop. don't know what to do.
Just keep using Bio Oil to keep them from drying out
thanks for the post xxxxxx
